Who should be my final reliever? ALWAYS WHIR

Postby NittanyLions1 » Mon Mar 08, 2010 7:52 pm

12-team H2H POINTS keeper league (scoring below...note we count holds, innings, K's, etc.). Most points per week wins

HERE ARE MY CURRENT PITCHERS
SP - Gallardo
SP - Kershaw
SP - Kazmir
SP - Scherzer
SP - Liriano
RP - Marmol
RP - Francisco
RP - Wagner
RP - ????

Available options (most of these guys will be on waivers btw because everyone else picked all their relievers already)...
Saito - I have Wagner so a good handcuff
Neshek - Will he be the guy if Nathan is down? ....Guerrier and Rauch are also available
Howell - Great K's and innings but didn't get many holds last year...got some saves though
Lyon - Does he end up closing in Houston?
Rodney - not very solid imo but could be the guy if Fuentes goes down and will get holds
Downs - very solid and could be guy if Gregg blows (as he does) and Frasor is traded (CHW inquired today)
Okajima - solid and gets lots of holds for Bosox
Adams - great Ks and could be guy if Bell is traded...but injury risk

B - Balks -1 point
BS - Blown Saves -5 points
CG - Complete Games 10 points
ER - Earned Runs -1 point
HB - Hit Batsmen -1 point

Rodney and Adams, Best chance of taking over a closers role I feel.

Adams has the most upside...plus he could become the closer.

Lyon, he's getting paid a ton by Houston, should be closing there.

I like Rodney. Fuentes is kind of shakey.
Gregerson will close if Bell leaves imo.

I agree. Lyon has the most immediate chance for save opps. As much as he sucks, saves are saves.

I agree about Neshek. Looks like we'll learn about the extent of Nathan's injury within the next couple days.

Help?
