Cardinals Not Expected To Name Closer Soon
6 years agoThe St. Louis Cardinals aren't expected to name a closer anytime soon, even if reliever Jordan Hicks is likely to get the bulk of the ninth-inning opportunities. Lefty Andrew Miller will also factor into the ninth inning. Alex Reyes and Carlos Martinez are wild cards if they find fits in the bullpen as well. Hicks should be considered the favorite for now, but the fact that St. Louis is playing the ninth-inning role coy for now hurts his fantasy value somewhat. He'll be a late-round speculative addition for saves in mixed leagues.
