@Jo: I think you can get a lot more in a trade for Aarmis. I'd start Hanson. Also, please take followups to the newest post.

Gregg out as closer, Marmol and Guzman co-closers for now. Guzman has been pitching better.

well the way I’m seeing it, is that the Braves are still in the playoff race so they may keep him going. same for the dodgers. so i don’t know if they’ll be shut down as soon as you’re saying.

@thebestspencerintheworld: They're apples for apples, so it's not really a trade I'd make. I'd prefer Kershaw by a hair, so if you want to make it, I won't stand in your way. Kershaw's walks do scare me though. Hanson is also liable to get shutdown before Kershaw, so that's another point in Kershaw's favor.

@thebestspencerintheworld: I wouldn't make that trade.

so, would you trade Hanson for Kershaw? my friend offered this to me and at first I was thinking, wow great trade. but now, i’m not positive.

I have hanson.
