I'd rank them:

Howell, Qualls, Soriano, Nunez, Macdougal

Soriano below the other two because of durability, but he probably has the best stuff. Big questions about each of the last two (Lindstrom possibly taking back the closer role from Nunez, and Macdougal...well, he's Macdougal).

Soriano, Howell, Qualls, McDougal, Nunez for me.

Can see Howell above Soriano, I just personally think the Rays will fall off this year as it's so tough to chase the Sox and Yanks from behind. They fed off of their own success last year -- will they start to tank if they're 6 games back in September this time around?

Qualls and McDougal next. Bad teams, few opportunities.

Then Nunez hasn't even fully secured the job.
