    Last I knew Edwin Jackson had the second lowest E.R.A. in the American League, behind Greinke. He pitches well enough to win every fifth day, but the offense rarely comes through for him. And I guess, also keep Marmol, when he's on and can control his stuff, he's as good as anyone.

    Raul Ibanez would be a good choice since he will hit in that band box of a park in the middle of a sick lineup for a couple more years.

    Keep Jackson and probably Valverde for a closer or maybe take a flier on Neftali Feliz and see if he ends up a closer of starter next year. either way he is a stud.
