namely, i think CHC, AZ, LAA, MIA seem interestingly in the air. and i dont think SF or WAS have clear situations right now.
Cubs- Lean Morrow, but no way he stays healthy, they'll likely trade (or sign?) someone.
DBacks- Seems like Bradley, could be a good steal. Over K per inning last year, and humidor (supposedly installed but no one knows for sure???) should help even more.
Angels- Bedrosian vs Parker. Bedrosian is the guy they want in, but Parker did so well last year (for first time in a long time). I guess Parker starts as closer, but Bedrosian will take over.
Marlins- Maybe Steckenrider? Had really good K rate in his small sample in majors last year, and could slide into closer role. Barraclough is the name I think people expect though.
Giants- Gotta be Melancon, Law was the guy they wanted to be closer through minors, had TJ in 2014, and his K rate just has been gone since, and didn't look great last year.
Nationals- Doolittle
