Gregg Removed From Closer Role
Cubs manager Lou Piniella announced early this morning that he plans to make late innings changes, according to Paul Sullivan of the Chicago Tribune. Kevin Gregg's West Coast implosion is the perfect fantasy opportunity - it's time to add Carlos Marmol, Angel Guzman, or both if you can.
The Cubs have tried to maintain Marmol as the setup man all year long, despite a maddening 52 walks in 56.3 innings. Guzman has far better control, though his strikeout rate has been mediocre in recent months. Here's how I see it: Piniella will probably soon announce an inclination toward Marmol, even though Guzman makes more sense. This may not be a fantasy dilemma for you, as Marmol is already owned in many leagues. So just add Guzman and see what happens.
