If you don't need saves then take Joba

It depends on what the rest of your team looks like.

How many closers do you have? How many closers start in your league? What type of league is it?

Its tough to answer such a question based on so little information.

Overall, in a 12 team yahoo public league....with Joba being only a 5th starter- Morrow is going to be more valuable.

I would keep Morrow and drop either Cabrera or Francisco for Joba - probably Cabrera.

Do NOT drop Morrow. He is a closer and a good one at that.

Ok, I will drop a RP for Joba as I need to drop one cause only 2 are allowed. But who? Frank Francsisco, Matt Capps, Kevin Gregg?

You are only allowed 2 RP, and you have three plus Morrow? This is confusing.

Regardless, I'd drop Francisco of those three for Joba...
