Who is worth the speculative add? Here are this morning tweets (Please note we won’t be posting these on the website every day, so make sure you follow @Rotoprofessor to ensure you don’t miss a thing):
DET: J Wilson nearly implodes in non-SV (3 R/4 H/3 K). Worth wondering if could lose role, w/A Wilson next up #MLB #FantasyBaseball #closers
— Rotoprofessor (@Rotoprofessor) May 28, 2017
PIT: Watson gets W but makes it interesting (2 H). w/1.64 WHIP may take 1 more implosion to get Rivero opps #MLB #FantasyBaseball #closers
— Rotoprofessor (@Rotoprofessor) May 28, 2017
WAS: Glover w/perfect IP for SV. Owns 0.00 ERA/0.97 WHIP/7 K/3 SV since return. Risk but may never lose role #MLB #FantasyBaseball #closers
— Rotoprofessor (@Rotoprofessor) May 28, 2017
NYM: Reed w/BSV (1 R/3 H) & has struggled in last 2 games (2 R/5 H/1 BB). No alternative so safe for now #MLB #FantasyBaseball #closers
— Rotoprofessor (@Rotoprofessor) May 28, 2017
STL: Oh gets SV & while he’s been used sparingly (2 appearances) has pitched well since last struggle & safe #MLB #FantasyBaseball #closers
— Rotoprofessor (@Rotoprofessor) May 28, 2017
SF: Melancon needs 4 pitches to get final 2 outs & earn SV (after Law made interesting w/1 R/2 H/1 BB/0.2 IP) #MLB #FantasyBaseball #closers
— Rotoprofessor (@Rotoprofessor) May 28, 2017
MIL: Feliz struggles w/large lead (1 R/2 H/1 BB). No reason to think Knebel will lose role at this point #MLB #FantasyBaseball #closers
— Rotoprofessor (@Rotoprofessor) May 28, 2017
HOU: w/Giles getting day off Harris w/perfect IP (2 K) for SV. Proves that is indeed next up if need arises #MLB #FantasyBaseball #closers
— Rotoprofessor (@Rotoprofessor) May 28, 2017
KC: Another strong outing for Herrera (1 H/2 K/SV). Continue watching Soria in case of trade but that’s all #MLB #FantasyBaseball #closers
— Rotoprofessor (@Rotoprofessor) May 28, 2017
NYY: Betances gets 5 out SV, w/3 K in the process. In 5.1 IP since moved into role has 1 H/0 BB/10 K/5 SV #MLB #FantasyBaseball #closers
— Rotoprofessor (@Rotoprofessor) May 28, 2017
TOR: Osuna w/another SV & now has 21 K vs. 2 BB on year. Remember when there were some early season concerns? #MLB #FantasyBaseball #closers
— Rotoprofessor (@Rotoprofessor) May 28, 2017
LAA: He did allow HR but good to see Norris on the mound after being pulled day before. Time will tell though #MLB #FantasyBaseball #closers
— Rotoprofessor (@Rotoprofessor) May 28, 2017
CWS: Another dominant performance from Robertson (2 K, 6 K/4.0 IP in past 3). Question is when trade comes #MLB #FantasyBaseball #closers
— Rotoprofessor (@Rotoprofessor) May 28, 2017
MIN: Kintzler gets SV (1 R/1 H/1 K). No concern & continues as one of safest (yet unspectacular) options #MLB #FantasyBaseball #closers

I play in a 10 team 5×5. I have Rivero stashed and wonder whether I should hold on to see if the Pirates work a trade for Watson. I also have Neris, Knebel and Allen. I need to drop Rivero or Neris. I could also potentially also drop Triggs and keep all of them. Any advice?
It all depends on who you’d be looking to pick up in his place. Can’t drop Neris, since he’s closing. Triggs is a regression risk, and in a 10-teamer is droppable. Rivero is a nice stash, but again in a shallow league probably isn’t a must hold depending on your alternative
Who’s the guy when Robertson gets traded?
It’ll probably ultmately be Nate Jones, but Kahnle is impressing and earning an opportunity. I’d stash him if possible
