Rangers looking for a closer

[SFGRTB]

Cal, I am literally copying and pasting what you put on the other board over here, but I think it could make for a decent discussion for those who can't be involved over there anymore.


"The Rangers are still not 100% sure where they will put Feliz this season. It has been reported that if they decide to put him in the rotation, they would likely look outside the org for a closer. The Giants have a number of solid relievers who possibly could be a closer for a lot of other teams.

Should the Giants look into moving Romo, Affeldt, or Casilla to the Rangers for a prospect or two?

Would any of these guys interest the Rangers?

What would we need in return to pull one of these guys out of our pen, given that the pen will likely be heavily used, at least for the first couple of month of the season?" -calsnowskier

Great topic, sf...

How about this idea...

Wilson for Andrus?

Bitch! I at least quoted you

I can't see any way we trade Weez. I would consider trading Romo or Affeldt for a substantial prospect like Profar. However, after Profar I can't see anyone in the Rangers developmental system worth trading for (they have SPs but we're set there).

I like Brian Wilson, and I agree with tzill that I don't think the Giants will move him, but Andrus is a player that I would not be upset about the Giants grabbing for Weezy (maybe the only player on the Rangers that they would possibly give up, isn't yet injury-prone and has desirable skills). Tejada could grab a bullpen arm at the deadline or slightly sooner depending on Panda's and DeRosa's performances.
