Some on the wire are - Kerry Wood, Huston Street, Eric Bedard, and Chris Young.
I don't really like Gonzalez to begin with, not sure when he is coming back, and seems like Wood or Street would be better options to put in my DL spot. Supposedly Wood will be back soon and should be in the closing role. Bedard is also pretty promising to hold onto. What do you guys think?

Brian Roberts was just dropped. Do I pick him up instead? Latest news is he will be 1-3 months on the DL, they haven't decided on surgery or not. Seems worth it though right?
Edit- NVM going with the above idea for Street. He is supposed to return in 2-3 weeks.

I'd pick up Huston Street over the other options. He has the most secure closer position once he's off the DL compared to Gonzalez and Wood (since Perez hasn't been bad). With all of Roberts' back problems, even if he comes back in a month or so, I don't expect him to put anything near 30 SB's, and without steals, he doesn't provide a lot of value.
