Is that too much pitching? Not enough saves? Some interesting FAs:
Burrell, LeCroy, Durham, Alomar
Affeldt, Eaton, Kolb, Ayala, Herges, Speier, Felix Rod.
Yeah, only thing about that is my little plan with Riske as Wickman-insurance. But it seems like I'll be able to pick up at least a couple closers along the way. Seems like Riske's numbers might point toward a nice year in the role if Wickman falters, and Wick doesn't seem like a sure thing at all. Thanks for the suggestion, I'll mull it over. Anyone else?
Burrell as a FA is killing me. I want him, then don't want him. It's like hitting on 16 in blackjack, or that girl you KNOW is bad news in the long run but you just can't stay away from. Anyway he's got to rebound, right? Is 40 HR, 100+ RBI out of the question?
