He is not on the waiver wire, but I went all in with Cischek this year. Got him fairly late in drafts and I believe he will perform well.

Nice call on Scheppers.. Although I think it really leaves the Rangers bullpen lacking, he's got his rotation spot. Would've never guessed

I agree on the nice call. I picked him up this AM in a league where my bench SPs were thin. Helps to read the message boards.

Orioles closer has saved 50 games in back to back seasons. Just saying.

and how many did he blow last year?

Saves aren't the only stats for evaluating relief pitchers, you know.

Really? LOL.

Hunter was not even the closer last year, but you are right Jim Johnson saved 50 despite blowing like 7 or 8.

All of the players on that list were crappy end of draft options. Soria could be a good pitcher again, the rest probably not. When comparing crappy options with other crappy options, I will take the one whose team yielded almost 60 save ops last year.

Is the sarcasm really necessary there?
