i say no seens how you already have in my eyes the 2 best closers in the game comboed with a just out outside of the TOP tier closers in Soria and then Street and Lidge to contribute also, no need to drop a guy that you could just stash and spot start for you in the playoffs to add stats you already have more then covered... keep Latos...

I would pick up Frason since Latos will probably be shut down before your playoffs start and you could put Downs in the DL spot first but I don't think he'll be closing much more this season.

I'd say keep Latos and ride him until he gets shut down you have enough closers, are there any starters that may be worthy on the WW

help with mine?

Yeah, I guess I didn't realize how stacked you are at closer. But since your league is so shallow I'd still think about dropping Latos for someone on the wire. Or trade some closer depth for an upgrade at catcher or starter.

i strongly disagree with this comment, don't dump Latos just ride him while hes hot til he gets shut down... but what i was saying is there is no need to add another closer cuz you had enough, now with saying that i wouldn't say go and trade them simply because you don't need SP help, hell your top 4 are all at bare minimum top 10 ranked arms don't worry about upgrading ANY of your pitching its perfectly fine, and to trade a closer with molina to upgrade there wouldn't really be worth it IMO cuz your bats are stacked enough to hang in there with molina, hell the guy has Sizemore, Pena AND Rivera sitting on his bench because he has no where to play them... i don't think that there is any reason to take away from a strong part on his team just to add 10 HR and 10-20 RBI onto his catcher spot... id stand pat unless a HUGE deal came along...

bazzy, that was the longest run on sentence I've ever read. I turned blue trying to finish it.

so Bazzy you disagreed with my, play Latos until they shut him down, instead of dropping him for another closer, Latos has been one of the rare bright spots on the Padres so why drop him for a closer you definately don't need, hell I would try and trade one for a extra catcher (Molina can't catch everyday), and when Latos gets shut down for the season, find who ever is hot on the WW and play them.
