I saw a topic posted a bit further downon this page about who this year's Octavio Dotel could be. In my opinion, what made Octavio Dotel so valuable was that, while he put up good numbers and lots of strikeouts, the thing that made his value shoot up was his (SP,RP) elgibility.

Who are the best (SP,RP) guys in Yahoo this year?

I've noticed Danys Baez, Rocky Biddle, and Johan Santana.

Joel Pineiro comes to mind

Foppert will fit that role soon...and will be a great choice as long as he turns around and does well.

Maybe I'm missing something, but I don't see the value of the (SP, RP) when the guy is actually playing as an SP. Maybe once in a while you have a ton of guys starting on the same day, and you need to put one in a RP spot to get all your starts in....

Anyway, for RPs who can sit in SP slots and help you out:
Santana, Baez, Lyon.
Also, Jaret Wright may win the closing job in SD.

No, you are right.

Jeff Weaver and Piniero

I have Biddle and I picked him up because I could put him in the lineup as a starter and still have 3 other closers.

I could have picked up the Royals closer who is having a hell of a year so far insteade of him, but in the long run I should be better off.

Royals can't keep winning right?

I still can't believe I chose 'closer by committe guys' Embree and Villafuerte and passed on MacDougal who was given the job with no competition.

My RP is in disarray with Izzy/Baez and no releif from my 'back-up picks'. Missing MacDougal probably will cost me a shot at first place.

Oh well, no 4-peat. I blame Sandbox for killing our free keeper league.
