Thoughts on closers

Here are some of my thoughts as we enter the last 2 months regarding closers....

Jenks continues to close games for Chicago.

Hanrahan takes over as the Pirates' closer, not Meek.

B League takes over in Seattle for the final 2 months.

J Gutierrez closes in Arizona due to lack of any competition.

B Wilson and R Soriano lead their leagues in saves .

Nothing shocking here and a lot of these comments are more wishful thinking on my part than anything else.

Anyone have any "potential" closers they stashed away as the trading deadline approaches?

I picked up Storen on the 18th for $17. However, I released JGuitterez in order to clear roster room for him.

I don't trust Gutt even if he keeps the job and don't know what to think about Storen but I guess on the 18th I considered him the better option. Obviously, it will depend on whether Capps' zip code changes in the next week or so.
