idk if you need saves but none of the guys o nthe list to choose from will get you saves. personally id grab both hitters as your 2b and 3b are not guarentees. i think stewart could have a good idea, he has a great line up and a great ballpark to hit in and neil walker is a sleeper 2b who could easily outperfrom hill if hill has another bad year

mcgee the closer is out there but on waivers

If you definitely want saves, Rodney is your man, since he's the only closer of the bunch so far. Walden might then be a smart pickup as backup for Rodney just in case he blows up. Contreras is interesting, but I personally think Madson will be a better fit for the job, so he may not get many saves. If McGee is on waivers, I'd get him over Walden since he's got the best shot of landing the TB closer role I think.

If you don't have to get saves, I like the idea of getting Walker, use the other spot to pick up Rodney maybe.

Thanks for the help with mine.

I like Rodney and Walker. Rodney, though a volatile option, is still a closer and thus has some value right now. As for Walker, I like his dual position eligibility.

However, I would also consider dropping Pineda for Stewart as well. Pineda is a big wildcard this season, but in a ten team, non keeper league, I'm not sure he's worth rostering yet.
