Houston, we have a save.

Im feeling kind of stupid after dropping him a couple days ago. Im not that worried though, that position should be back and forth all year.

I dropped him too, and regretted it...but then I saw this:
Tosca is considering making RHP Jason Frasor the closer. Frasor has one save and a 1.69 ERA in 10 games. RHP Terry Adams, who is the role now, has a 2.93 ERA, but no saves. RHP Justin Speier has Toronto's only other save.
Granted, he got one today, but he also gave up 2 hits. I think all it takes is one or two blown saves and the job is Frasor's. I don't think he'll be a whole lot better, but it just goes to show that the Toronto closing situation is not worth wasting a roster spot on.
Here's the source for that by the way:

Adams was named closer a few days ago. I've had him since then. With the talent the Jays have in the bullpen, Frasor won't see many save opps, if any.

Adams worth a look?
I am in a 10 team league and have Rhodes, Herges, and Valverde for closers.
I am tied this week with 4 saves going into the last day.
someone just dropped MacDougal too (clears may 11th)

screw macdougal for the time being, if u need a quick fix Adams appears to be your man, but i wouldnt count on nothing long term

would have to drop Suppan for him though
hmm he is 3 and 3 though and I think there are better free agents out there like Cliff Lee
