Let the Closer merry-go-round begin

mmassmedia  4/1/2014 12:53 PM

Just my way of venting on what was a really great draft plan that will take a few months to get back together after 3 closer injuries. Down goes Chapman, down goes Jannsen, and then down goes Parnell. What seemed to be a great H2H draft plan is put in a holding pattern for now. Sigh!!!. Good thing is I am loaded on the bat side. Punting wins and strikeouts on the pitching side was the plan and kinda still has to be the plan. Not sure if there is advice to be given minus be patient. Like I said this is just my vent and this is my current roster. If you see where some advice can be given I am open..

12 Teams | 13 Hitters Per Team [5 Active = HR RBI SB R BA] | 10 Pitchers Per Team [5 Active = W SV ERA WHIP SO]

I'd drop Parnell and see if I can get a decent new closer on the wire.  Everyone scooped up already?  Quick to the add and you'll find saves.

could alternatively or also drop gattis, carter for closers or low WHIP MR like Melancon

Just to note, smyly is now a SP so would not fit your strategy.

Was hoping Smyly would have a great first few starts and I could swing him around. Everyone was snatched and due to an yahoo glitch I missed someone by 1 minute yesterday. Looking at a few middle relivers that will do the job though.
