i don't see how you can drop any of these guys. if you have someone on offense to drop... a benchwarmer, then i'd say try to get aardsma. if you get points for RAPP, wins, and K's with relievers, i like andrew bailey. i have him, and he has more RAPP than almost anyone. he's not the closer, but could be at some point this year.

help me please: viewtopic.php?t=386629

If these are the only drop candidates I'd suggest staying put.

I'd definitely try to snag Aardsma & Greeg but not at the expense of your pitching.I'd drop a guy on offense,bench type, & maybe try a 2 for 1 to upgrade at another spot to & open up a roster spot to add an RP.

Ya, your gonna have to stay put. Keep an eye on the Ray's bullpen right now, and see if you have a utility guy that can go for the front-runner there. Or try to move one of you struggling closers for a helpful piece, as you move another piece for a closer somewhere else.

I agree with him. If you really need saves, those two guys are decent. But, keep an eye on Gregg, he may cause more problems than anything.
