Sore arm combined with loss of 4mph is definitely cause for concern. As well as a trip to my do not bid list.

I think Fairbanks is the leader. Consensus seems to be Fairbanks or Diego Castillo. I stilll don't think anyone gets 25 saves. I didn't think Anderson would either, though.

A reminder Anderson had zero saves in 2019 despite arguably being their best reliever in the second half of the season.
The closer this year will be PeterDiegoRyanShane Fairbanks-Castillo-Thompson-Sheriff-McClanahan
Last night, news broke on Anderson mid-draft and we were in dollar days so someone grabbed Fairbanks

Agree with Jason (shocking as Jason & Tampa = Listen). Fairbanks and Castillo probably remain the best bets it you will but this won't change the overall approach I wouldn't think.
I personally lean Fairbanks but only because of his role during the postseason.

Originally posted by joncarlos View PostThe Jays seemed like they had finally given Romano the job last year and then he got hurt. Then they started looking at other options. I think they're more willing to commit to one person than they say, and I think Romano is likely to be that guy. Romano also throws harder and has a better K/9.
Originally posted by Pauly View PostIn my online championship draft last night, I took Romano in the 15th round ahead of Pagan, Melancon, Hicks, Holland, Barnes and Rodriguez. Having a degree of buyer's remorse about it honestly.
This is a pretty high-cost draft and a guy took Yates in the 9th round. I was like WHOA!

So many situations seem to be up in the air, how would you rank these guys? First three are on my roster, the others are FAs.
Bard
Scott
Wittgren
Romano
Pagan
Neris

Romano - biggest share of job on a reasonably good team, if not the sole guy
Pagan - decent sized share of a 95+ win team
Neris - starting to think maybe he'll be the guy, but who knows
Bard - he's probably the guy but his team is awful
Scott - see Bard
Kennedy - his team is bad and I'm not sure he's the guy
