My NL-only 5x5 redraft league is drafting on Sunday night and has decided to allow free agents to be nominated and bid at auction, at risk of losing them if they sign in the AL. With that risk, how high would you be willing to go on Kimbrel? It seems like MIL and ATL are the likeliest destinations for him, with WAS and CHC as possible fallbacks, all in the NL. (If he were already in place as the Brewers or Braves closer, he'd probably go for around $25 given prior year costs for proven closers.)

I'd be OK going to the mid teens on Kimbrel in B-Fly's situation. Other than BOS and maybe MIN, neither of whom seems at all interested, almost all the suitors are NL teams. I would almost put "sits out until June" above "signs with an AL team in the next 10 days" right now.

I like Doolittle, too, but it seems like WAS would be happy to use him as a setup man for a veteran closer (Kimbrel or otherwise). It sounds like Counsell is loathe to just make Hader the closer even if Kimbrel signs elsewhere.
I suspect that Counsell is under orders from the front office to not let Hader get more than X amount of saves to keep down his future arbitration cost.“Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the universe.”
