Draft and Trade Talk Message Board

Rising Closers
#1 JGrilli - Pit - Look for Chapman-lite type of numbers from the Bucs new Stopper.
#2 Fujikawa - Chi - Look for Marmol to fail early and Mt.Fuji to solidify the Cubbies' pen.
#3 Phil Coke - Det - Look for Coke to step into the high-leverage role and quietly get it done.

Falling Closers
#1 JHanraran moves from NL Central to AL East, farmland to bandbox, with an increasing BB rate.
#2 JNathan gets ages another year with weaker starters and bats = less opportunities.
#3 CPerez is not loved in Cleveland and virtually no staff to get him opportunites; Pestano awaits.

In terms or draft? Or in terms of what we would think would be their end of season stats?
