Also who's the add in Arizona if Qualls gets moved? Pena or what?

[eneric]

In Francisco's first save attempt since the DL, he gave up 2 walks 2 hits and a 3 run homerun to tie it to Juan Rivera. CJ Wilson pitched the 8th, 1 Hit and 3 Ks.

You can be sure that I being a CJ Wilson owner will not drop him until well after the all star break if ever with the inconsistency of Francisco.

[eneric]

Another thing about Franky Franco is that we all know even if he keeps his job as a closer he won't be available to pitch back to back games. I honestly think Wilson is worth owning as I can so see Francisco going down again.

its looking more and more like Gonzalez is not closing out many games in Atlanta!

Except Gonzo stuck out the side and Soriano allowed 2 ER

They both have been great recently, with the exception of this game for Soriano, and 2 back to back appearances by Mike. This will haunt fantasy players all season it seems.


I own Gonzo, and I am sad about it.

Anyone making an educated guess on which of the three has the greatest potential for saves going forward?

C.J.Wilson, Meyer or Madson.

I have access to all three but can only hold one and would be interested in what the consensus is.

I would say C.J. since I don't think Francisco is 100%. Madson hasn't been good lately so I'm not sure he's first in line if Lidge goes down again. And Meyer seems to be 2nd in line behind Nunez.

I'd still guess Pena is first in line, but he has been pretty bad for the past month or so. Over the last 2 weeks, he's allowed ERs in 4 of his 6 outings. Rauch is 3rd and also a possibility, and presumably would get the spot if both Qualls and Pena were moved.
