True. But not for very long. Okajima was owned by April.

Joba wasnt a FA very long after he wa added in any of my leagues.

There are a few MRs who seem like locks to give quality innings across 3 cats: ERA, K, WHIP. Bell, Broxton, Betancourt, and Okajima for example. Target them in late middle rounds but be cuatious about lesser studs. It seems there is a lot of room for turnover and breakouts in MR. You might be able to grab a couple studly MRers off the wire as the season works itself out.

Are there injury concerns with Neshek? Anyone have any updates on him this spring training?

I would add Marmol to that list.
