Tony Watson came into the season as an elite closer in holds leagues, but has yet to make an 8th inning appearance this year. Has Ray Searage fixed two pitchers? Given Feliz's great start this year in the 8th role, is he the PIT set-up man to own?

I think you will most often see Watson in the 8th, but Hurdle has shown that he will probably use Watson against the "harder" part of the lineup in the 7th or 8th. If Melancon goes down I am not sure if they go to Watson or Feliz, but my guess would be Watson.

I honestly think they're going to play the matchups between Watson/Feliz for the 7th and 8th. And I think if Melancon went down they'd play the matchups for saves. If I could only have one I'd lean slightly towards Feliz. They may be more likely to push Watson harder though (in terms of # of appearances) so in a holds league, he might still be your guy.
