I would take Addison Reed over Romo because I think he will close at some point this year in Chicago while Romo would only get saves if Wilson goes down and so far so good for him. Plus if you get Reed you have 2+ closers and if Reed gets the job at some point you might have three - I would still get Romo but you could then wait for him.

The only SP I would add immediately would be Jarrod Parker
Of the hitters I might well take Perez or Ruiz to give you a third catcher especially with likely to develop 1B eligibility

I also like Pressley and like LaHair who right now only qualifies at OF but will add 1B

Capn' mentions the two guys I was going to suggest in Redd and Parker - so I will just echo his recommendation there.

I also like Presley and Lahair and think you should be able to get one of them on your next pair of picks.

Parker looked great in his first spring start.

I would for sure get Posey's backup (unless you had two starting catchers on reserve).......IMO you need four catchers for these rosters...I might carry five with Posey's issues

You NEED more pitchers - don't be afraid to get the best/most likely to be called up at some point this year - Trevor Bauer, AZ; Danny Hultzen, SEA; Gerrit Cole, PIT; Mike Montgomery, KC; etc

Forget RP other than Romo or potential closers (Carpenter/Hou would be interesting IF/when they trade Myers)

I like Jesus Guzman a LOT.....just not sure where the at bats come from but it's a long season

Yeah, Guzman is a good get this late. Also, surprised Schafer is still available. He is the Astros starting CF, right? Are you sure that's not Logan Schafer of the Brewers?

Whoops, just realized the last post was 3 days ago. This thing is probably about wrapped up by now, huh?
