Sherrill to get dealt?

[rocky123]

I included Sherrill in a recent deal to get Wagner for this very reason. He may get dealt to St. Louis as a setup man

Per RW:

The St. Louis Post Dispatch reports that the Cardinals are interested in George Sherrill.
The newspaper adds that Eddie Guardado is another possibility as the Cardinals look to acquire a left-handed setup man. Sherrill has 29 saves for the Orioles after coming over in the Erik Bedard deal.

who would take over closing duties??

-bradford
-cabrera
-johnson

or do they have anyone in AAA???

if he's dealt to St. Louis it won't be as a set up man.

Our current closer situation is horrid...in that we don't have one.

I was mentioning the same thing to my buddy at work. St Louis closers are in a shambles I don't know why they would trade for someone with 29 saves and make him a setup man.

Yeah, there's a good chance that Jim Johnson gets the save opps if Sherrill is dealt. He's been pretty great this year.

what about Matt Albers?

[pangbones]

I think Johnson would get first crack at it. And I also think Sherrill would close for St Louis. They want a lefty in the pen, but I think Sherrill is much better than Franklin, and Izzy looks like toast to me.

Ryan Franklin has done a good job but if they get Sherrill he should be the closer

The Brewers are also interested in Sherrill. It's possible he would close on either team.

I don't see how Sherrill would end up closing in either team, but I certainly wish to god it happens! Picked him up as an afterthought in many leagues and it has paid huge dividends!
