MLB FANTASY NEWS: Two teams name closers

[JakeT.]

Cubs go with Kevin Gregg over Carlos Marmol for no apparent reason. Marmol is the better closer and he's the future of the spot. Not sure what Chicago was thinking.

Mariners go with Brandon Morrow it appears. Not 100%. Morrow says he wants to be the closer as opposed to the starter and the Mariners need someone for the job so the talented youngster likely gets the job shortly.

With Trevor Hoffman on the shelf, Charlie Villanueva has been annointed the closer for the Brewers until Hoffman returns.
Hoffman is 41, and may be slow to recover, Villanueva has game, and if you are looking for saves relatively cheap, Villanuva is your man.

What about this guy Jason Motte for the Cardinals, does he any value?

Motte has tons of value.
Strikeout artist with major cheese, he still has to beat out Chris Perez, but Motte has the inside track.
