Will Guardado be traded into setup role

[mikcou]

Please please please don't let him be traded to setup. I'm in a points league rather than roto, so setup guys have very little value, except for the potential to replace a struggling closer (see: Brad Lidge). I'd rather he got traded as a closer to a better team that'll give him more save ops.

Lidge is struggling?

I was about to say the same thing. Lidge is lights OUT.

i think he is refering to Lidge taking over the closing job... lidge struggling doesnt make sense

First off, Guardado's contract has a player option for next year and he's told the media he's not going to take that option because he hates Seattle. So, he's definitely going to be traded, unless the M's like their players walking for nothing. I dont' know about other teams, but Boston is definitely trying to acquire him, and he would be a set-up man in their bullpen.
