Mark Melancon?

#1 Post by Tig »

do not know much about him, but an owner is trying to sell him to me. can anyone give me some insight? is he potentially the closer for the Yanks next year? (is Rivera's contract up after this year?)...

is this someone you would target as a keeper (12 team AL only) for next year with a $5 price tag in a $260 cap league.

Mo is signed through 2010.

He is a fairly highly touted reliever, I can fill in some details later, but philosophically, I personally would not take up a keeper spot, even for $5 on a speculative middle reliever for a team that has the assets to buy the best closer available. If it isn't Joba, they will go outside the organization.
