I play in a 12 team H2H 5x5 plus QS and OBP redraft league and I have Brad Hand and Giles as closers. Hector Rondon among other closers are still available (Will Smith, Blake Parker, Joe Jimenez). What's your take on Ken Giles?

If I'm not mistaken I believe Hinch played the closer carousel a couple years ago before Giles settled into the role. You believe it happens again? Should I hold Giles, drop him for someone else available, or drop another pitcher for someone available?

Current pitchers:

Greinke, Quintana, Berrios, Price, Garrett Richards, Morton, Bieber, and Eflin.

It's clear Houston doesn't trust Giles to close. If saves are a need, I'd look elsewhere. Melamcon may take over, but at least for now, I like Will Smith.
