Battling for 1st place in my 12-team NL-only keeper league and one area where I could use some help is saves since Rosenthal is my only closer. Last place dude isn't paying attention otherwise I'd be going hard after Kimbrel, but instead I'm working with the following options:
Lamb ($5/1 year left on contract and can be extended) for Storen ($10/1)
Lorenzen ($5/2) and Tapia ($3/2 once he gets called up) for Axford ($10/2)
Lorenzen ($5/2), Tapia ($3/2+), and Morton ($1/2) for Papelbon ($19/2), Medeiros ($5/2+), and Quackenbush ($10/2)
Lorenzen ($5/2) and something marginal for Reed ($16/2)
Getting Storen is obviously the best option but he'll cost the most. The other 3 range from scary to questionable but won't cost nearly as much. I just lost Trumbo to the AL so giving up major league hitting would hurt a bit (hence all the other offers including Tapia and Lorenzen). Which direction would you go?
