In my 14 team, 5x5 keeper league, I'm in the 15th round right now and only have Hoffman as my closer...now the only closers available right now are Biddle, Hawkins and a sleeper Ryan Wagner. I know out of all of them, Biddle is the only one how actually has a closer job as of right now but are any of them worth a pick here?
Thanks chipper!!!!

If I had one goal in my draft, it would be to not have Biddle as my first OR second closer. Hope that helps.

Not that likely. Borowski is good and Hawkins is not as a closer.

Hawkins flopped as a closer last time he got the chance, and he's so good in the setup role its not worth the risk unless Borowski really bombs.

I thought Wagner was going to be in the rotation this year. Isn't Graves the closer?

Graves is the closer but Wagner is waiting in the wings if he screws up some how

Everyone I know in Minnesota refered to Latroy as GasCan while he was our closer. He was horrible. I don't think I can format that last sentance in large enough text, so I'll just leave it as it is.

Wagner, he'll get the closer position way sooner Hawkins will (if ever)
