He might also want to acquire another closer as in a 12 team league the leaders will have 3 solid closers. Street has been better after a rocky start while Bell has been very good but not getting very many opportunities since the Padre’s hot start. Rodney is far from a reliable option, albeit one I’ve been forced to rely on in my 14 team ML due to injuries. If I could upgrade him I’d do it in a heartbeat.

Shaky closers are never fun to own, but I would rather have a better lineup or solid starters with shaky closers that hopefully keep their job over a Rivera, Soria, or Papelbon.
In this specific case, there are only two RP spots so the most closers you could start are two, unless you have Morrow (who lost his job) or another closer with SP eligibility. They are few, though. So with his two closers right now (and one on the bench), he is doing fine in that area….
