Default Closers to be?

I wil have a pretty good ww selection tomorrow. I need a 3B replace Pablo for 4-6 weeks, another guy will be taking one too given Longoria's injury.

A number of mediocre 3B available. Chipper J, Wiggington, Middlebrooks, Liddi, Hannahan, Polonco, Seager, Valencia.

Chipper and Wiggington would be my 1 & 2, and there's a good chance I could nab one on the 2nd round. And at the very least grab the 3rd best on the 2nd round.

There are a number of potential closers available: LAA-Frieri (just acquired from SD), Mujica (save for Mia), Dolis (Marmol replacement?), as well as solid home starters J.Parker & Colon.

I 'd drop Wolf for the 3b and walden for the potential closer/sp.

Do I use the ww pick to grab one of these potential closers/sp or do I play it safe and insure I have Chipper or Wigs?

I think you still need to wait a day or two more before you invest in either Frieri, Dolis or Mujica. I would definitely pick up Jarrod Parker and possibly Colon, if you can make room. I wouldn't drop Walden just yet.

Good advice above by DM. I also think you may want to consider Wiggy for a few weeks, Chipper wouldn't be a bad option either.

I believe Mujica got the save opp because Cishek had pitched 2 innings the night before and was unavailable. After Bell blew it again yesterday, Cishek came in and pitched 3 scoreless innings for the win. I would hesitate to assume Mujica being next in line.

Good call, I agree with that. I will say that I'm not very excited about Cishek if he becomes the closer.
