2011-11-15 13:00:00	I hear that odds are Pads won't re-sign Heath Bell, but who else is giving him offers? Also, if he leaves San Diego, would that hurt his fantasy value (worse ballpark) or help (better team)? (Noah Braun from San Diego)	I haven't heard of any concrete offers yet, but the Red Sox sound like they’re going to be in on the remaining top closers (Bell and Ryan Madson). The Jays have been linked, but it seems more likely they’ll go for a cheaper option. Other teams without clear closers like the Reds and Dodgers could also get involved. The Padres might still be the favorite, though, especially if the Red Sox go a different direction (i.e. Madson, a cheaper option to compete with Bard, or a trade for someone like Joel Hanrahan). It would likely hurt his value if he did leave, but the extent would depend on where he ends up. Being on a better team is more important for starting pitchers than relievers, since offense has a smaller impact on save chances than it does on a starter’s wins. The defense will of course matter for his ratios, but as long as he’s a closer, he’ll be a good bet for 30-35 saves, as he would be in San Diego. It’s also worth noting that Bell saw a big drop in K rate this year (20% compared to 29% in 2009-2010), and Pecto actually inflates Ks by 10 percent over a neutral park. That’s going to be something we’ll really need to keep an eye on next year, but it's not enough to make me shy away from him if I need a closer in my leagues and he's affordable. (Derek Carty)
2010-07-09 13:00:00	keeper league - is Ryan Madson a good bet to close next year? trying to decide if I should pull the trigger on a deal... (Henry from Fairport)	The Phillies have a club option for $12.5M on Lidge--I find it hard to believe they'll pick it up, considering the money trouble they claimed to have run into this winter when it came to keeping Lee. Madson's the man if that's the case, but if Lidge keeps dealing, who knows? (Marc Normandin)
2010-05-05 13:00:00	Heath Bell will be traded by _____. My two favorite 8th inning guys that will soon become closers are ______ and ____. (Tad Lucky from Vegas)	July.
