Closers & Their Backups Update

[bigh0rt]

I think Baez is ranked a bit low. Below Tyler Walker, Mike MacDougal, Fuentes et. al? I know he is a trade risk, but below Tyler Walker?

Below Walker and MacDougal is definitely low for the guy. I wouldn't have a problem sticking him right below Fuentes, or even right above him, but Walker and MacDougal need to eat up the bottom of that list.

Is Carter definitely the backup for Tampa, or is it Orvella?

Other than that - and a couple other things (like Torres vs. Gonzalez, and Howry) that have already been mentioned, this definitely looks useful. I'm not saying I agree with the rankings, but it's still good to have a sense of who's next in line.

personally, the best closer ranking situations updates are available for free at:

just click on "closer update". this site as a whole is excellent as well. I use it regularly as you can check batting order, DL, SP rotation, etc. here as well.




riske is not the backup in CLE. It is howry. When Wickman was out for a couple games Howry got the save opp. And we all kno whow riske and betancourt have failed in the past.

Pretty nice...thanks
