One question only: Do I need another closer?

[kaiser]

I am leading my league, and at or near the top of almost every catagory (standard 5X5) except saves, where I have only 3 out of a possible eight points. Do I need to add a closer, or should I stand pat?

i think ur good. only putz might not be closer for rest of season depending on how guardado does. other than that lookin great

[choidavid91]

thanks for your input, and sorry for the delay.

I think you'll be fine with closers...Hoffman is extremely reliable and Nathan WILL get more opportunities. also putz seems to be handling his job really well, i think he can hold the job for the rest of the season barring injury. walker is obviously very inconsistent but you might as well be riding the wave...

if you really want a closer try making a move for f. rodriguez, he hasn't gotten many opportunities and has been struggling as of late

[j24jags]

just pick up available closers when theyre announced, you dont need one bad enough to trade for one

[schmidty]

You can't be #1 in everything -- well, I guess you could be, but there's no need Don't monkey with a winning team too much. Like mentioned, if someone really good pops up on the WW give a look. Otherwise, don't worry about it.
