You should try to get another mid-range closer or punt the saves category completely and trade Foulke for a stud starter.
I wouldnt advise punting any catagories try and get another closer...
Never punt a catagory!
Yes doctor, I am sick. Sick of those who are spineless. Sick of those who feel self-entitled. Sick of those who are hypocrites. Yes doctor, an army is forming. Yes doctor, there will be a war. Yes doctor, there will be blood.....
The prices that some other fantasy studs went for in my league: Schilling $40, Delgado $40, Pujols $51, Vlad $53, Gagne $52 and A-Rod $55. We had some pretty good deals in the second half of our draft, while a few owners only had $1 a piece for their last 10 picks. Comparatively, I do not think that I paid too much for Beltran.

Perhaps, but I would have rather spent a few more bucks for Pujols. And I agree, do not punt a category.

I don't advise punting a category. The only category that this can work with is saves. Look at the other teams - if punting saves will give you a big advantage in the s/o, k and win categories then get rid of your closer. If you do this getting a stud in return is a PRIORity.
The safe thing to do of course is to get another closer.

try to look for closers who werent auctioned or a team that is willing to trade a closer for a low value...
when i saw this, i was like "well, phillips isn't starting any more... whoa! great deal on abreu! how'd that happen... HALLADAY FOR 32?! IS THIS DRAFT FROM LAST YEAR OR SOMETHING?!?" and then i looked at the date of the post and the world made sense again.
