Another Week of Wilson

It looks like CJ Wilson will be the closer for the Rangers for another week. Francisco is eligible to come off of the DL but he has pneumonia. Wilson has shown himself to be reliable in the role, so there is no need for Texas to hurry Francisco back. With that said, there is no light at the end of the CJ Wilson tunnel, he will not be the closer when Francisco is healthy. This will not be a magic pickup that will carry you through the playoffs (barring injuries of course) So until Francisco is fully healthy Wilson is a good source of cheap saves. Looks like you'll get a week out of him. -Scout Monkey

Francisco out this weekend, could be DL bound.

Texas Rangers' closer Frank Francisco, who hasn't pitched since April 29th, will likely be out until early next week. Francisco, who has 9 saves, 13:4 K:BB ratio, and sparkling 0.00 ERA, has been battling biceps tendinitis recently, and may ultimately end up on the disabled list. C.J. Wilson, (owned in 4% of Yahoo Leagues), is next in line for the save chances, and is worth a short term add. Scout C.P. Staley
