I bet you lost a closer. I’m here to help at 12:30.
With a phone full of pictures of pitchers' fingers, strange beers, and his two toddler sons, Eno Sarris can be found at the ballpark or a brewery most days. Read him here, writing about the A's or Giants at The Athletic, or about beer at October. Follow him on Twitter @enosarris if you can handle the sandwiches and inanity.
Eno, the Nazis that run my league don’t allow waiver claims. The only time you can pick up a free agent is when you have to DL someone. Stupid, I know. It’s a 10 team, 5X5 mixer, and I’m not too upset about Gamel’s misfortune, but who should I grab? My pitching is lacking compared to my hitting. I could have Bedard, Sale, Alvarez, Chen, Milone, Parker, Ross, or Saunders or grab Fernando Rodney to platoon with Marshall and Betancourt. Or I could grab an extra bat like Chris Davis, Altuve, Middlebrooks, Parra, or Schafer. Considering the few chances I will get for a pickup – what to do? Sorry for the novel, but please, HELP!
Dude, quit that league. Waiver and free agent pickups is like 60% of fantasy baseball.
Sale!

No Beavis, those men are Nihilists, there’s nothing to be afraid of.
Well, the good news is, it sucks equally for everyone. I was leaning towards Sale, so I guess I go with him.
UPDATE: With Sale moving to the pen, I opted to grab Altuve. Probably could have used another closer, but currently shopping Altuve or Pedroia for another quality arm.
Eno,
