In a 7 man league with Wins, Saves, Strikeouts, Holds, ERA and WHIP as
the pitching scoring parameters.

I lead the Saves category by 40 saves over the next closest team. I
am down to 4 closers - Jason Isringhausen, Jonathan Papelbon, Bobby
Jenks and Huston Street, but I need to drop another one to pick up
another setup man. I figure a 40 Save lead and two of those four
should sew up the category (I'll keep three for now to guard against
an injury).

Which one would you drop?

Hmm, flip a coin there's not much separation there -- Street or Jenks
are perhaps more likely to hit a slump, but papelbon would probably get
you the best value back in a trade -- I think I'd try and get max value
for whoever in a trade

Is there really any point in trying to trade in a 7 team league?
Akinori Otsuka is out there available for free. What would *you*
trade to get Papelbon when Otsuka can be had for nothing?
