    Who should we get as Closer?

    Pick your Closer here. Be realistic though. I say Ryan Dempster.

    Whoever says John Smoltz, I will kill..

    Doesn't Dempster, umm.. suck? I mean we could put Sosa or Reitsma in there and they'd be just as good or better than Dempster.

    Sosa would be awesome, but Cox won't put him in there. And Dempster is a beast.

    We should just do what Florida does.. and not even use a bullpen. Seems to be working out for them.

    Reitsma has some filthy stuff, I'd give him a shot seriously. Reds fans regret that trade heavily with our major bullpen woes (to go along with our other woes).

    We could give Graves a shot.

    For the minimum salary, I would take on Graves. But not as a closer. Just as a middle reliever. He used to be good.
