2K21 Closer thread

Source? The Monkey says RR's numbers have been better and Smith is not a lock to close.

Source is this guy right here.

If you think Rodriguez will close, go with that. Seems doubtful. Teams normally don't depose closers having very successful seasons.



FYI, Brad Hand came in for the 8th inning last night, setting up Romano.

I can see ATL and TOR splitting save chances like the White Sox have announced to keep both guys fresh. I feel RR's value is dinged but not tanked.

You absolutely could be right. But my belief is they won't rock the boat.

For what it may be worth, I managed to pick up Finnegan in all of my leagues, including the one where I am hurting for saves.

I remember this guy pitching college ball against Baylor.

With Ranger Suarez apparently moving into the rotation following the acquisition of Ian Kennedy, I've moved him into the "kaput" category.

I don’t think Rodriguez is in the mix.

Agree, at least not immediately. Looks like they're using Rodriguez to address high-leverage lineup areas or situations.

PSST, the Rodriguez you want to close NL games is in Chicago....

Is Hand worth holding in a H2H W+SV league?

Redraft? Probably not, although it would depend on who’s on the WW. But you’re the Jays guy — does he look to be getting any shots?

from what I've seen so far he'll be the classic 2IC - on days when Romano has pitched back to back (or if he gets hurt) he'll be the guy, but I don't see more than 2-3 svs over the last couple of months for Hand

No, he isn't even getting high-leverage work right now. I'm looking to fortify my bullpen for the playoffs.

It's SV+HD so even setting up he would have value. Should I drop him for any of Lorenzen, Sulzer, Matzek, Floro, Bender, Bard, Givens, Jackson?

I wouldn't hold your hand.

I wouldn't hold your hand.
