Since the IP limit is only ten grabbing a closer could help in ERA, WHIP and saves, if there are any closers available.

 

[redseat]

Only one out there right now is Nate Jones

 

[tlance]

Get Jones for sure.

Even if he does not end up being the closer, I would rather gamble on him than a guy like Straily

 

[TKOSpikes]

yes, grab Jones for Straily... that way, you can trade Kimbrel which should land you a massive hitting upgrade somewhere.

also wouldn't trust Gallardo here.. any starters out there on waivers?

 

[redseat]

Jones aquired.

Starters - just based on espn "owned" rankings

dillion gee
ian kennedy
wade miley
ubaldo jimenez
micheal pineda
josh johnson
tim hudson
scott kazmir
travis wood
mike leake

just to name a few

I like Pineda and Kazmir over Gallardo.
Probably both over Garza too <ducks>

 

[TKOSpikes]

what about sleepers? Yordano Ventura (KC) out there?

also like Pineda over Gallardo.

Just picked up Ventura. Forgot to mention that earlier

 

[redseat]

but what about my line-up? Do people think it has enough juice to make it? Seems like my pitching (assuming they stay healthy) will do great. With the exception of which Verlander I get.

 

[TKOSpikes]

I'm not thrilled with your Hill-Aybar-Murphy-Headley combo you got going on, but like I said, Kimbrel's value could be through the roof in this one, and could land you a special hitter...

just a thought

Uggla is available. Should I take a flier and hope he breaks out?
