    The Milwaukee bullpen is pretty bad, but yeah K-Rod would be next in line IMO.

    Already added K-Rod in my leagues. Dropped Axford a couple days ago too, before the announcement came out. I've had my fill of him. He has no secondary pitch whatsoever.

    Update in Washington.....

    After allowing 3 earned runs for a blown save last night, Tyler Clippard was back on the mound tonight with a 4-1 lead in the 9th.

    It was pretty scary for a bit....he allowed a homer to Wright, struck out two, then another homer to Jason Bay, but he was able to close it out with his third K of the inning.

    Still....have to think his job security is a lot less sure these days.

    I think there's a very good chance Storen reclaims that position... BTW, K-Rod has looked terrible in his first two save chances.

    Speculative adds and potential closers come deadline....Broxton seems most likely to go and Perez was rumoured too. Looks like Street will stay put.
    Potential closers....Holland in kc and Pestano in cle. Anyone else here anything?

    Assuming Broxton moves, I like Holland a lot. I think he'll most likely be their long term solution.

    They use Lopez in the 9th who gives up a hit Fri. and then go to Cruz/Cedeno who blow it.
    No idea why Lopez was not left in...What is going on here?

    Jared Burton is available on ww, Perkins is gone. Wondering if he is still considered a better option than Lopez.
