I'd probably stay put, but if you really wanted to pick him up for the upside, then dropping Dotel would be the way to go. Based on the roster in the sig, not sure that you can afford to drop Ely just yet, although I didn't see who your 4th closer is. Thanks for the help on mine.

I wouldn't drop anyone for him, but if you must, Ely or Simon would be my choices.

Simon and Dotel both have a good chance of losing the closing gig, but its going to take a trade to take it from Dotel, while Gonzalez is looming on the horizon for Simon. Simon is the drop here if you have to choose.

I agree. If you are going to drop somebody, I'd drop Simon. Gonzalez is throwing again. Only a matter of time until he's back on the mound. I do not think that I would do that though. I think I would get as many saves out of Simon as I could, but that depends on how valuable saves are in your league.

I have to agree. Simon would be my drop, if you want to get Tabata. Not sure if It helps your team though.
