if you lose Soria without getting a closer back your left with Cordero and Devine, and thats if Devine gets the closers job in Oakland. im not sure i even trust Cordero that much to be your only reliable closer. i wouldnt want to lose someone like Soria without getting any closer back in return.

Armando Galarraga isnt that interesting, he is overrated. his 3.73 ERA last season looks decent, but he had a really low .247 BABIP. chances are his ERA is going to be well into the 4's this season. he was never much of a prospect. his career minor league numbers are 3.95 ERA, 1.32 WHIP.

i think id have to say no if those are the players involved.

I wouldn't . Stand pat.

If you could get one of his lesser relief pitchers and still get Josh Hamilton for them I would do it.

But like the others have said losing Soria may be making you worse off in the long run.
