Not getting rid of player in bold

my team has struggled in pitching lately and i could use another closer, have any suggestions, there really is no good pitchers left to pickup:

 

FA's

Doug Davis

Mike Gonzalez (hoping he becomes a closer)

Jeremy Affeldt " "

John Lackey

Jose Contreras

If Joe Borowski is available, nab him. he just came off the DL and should resume closer duties this week. Lyon will be back on the 28th when he's available to come off the DL (his DL stint was retroactive to the 13th). You've got Looper, and Street is now the Oakland closer with Dotel on the DL (and if Huston can excel, Octavio will be banished to middle relief). So you've got 3 potential closers in your lineup already, and if you can get Borowski that's 4.

 

As for SP - try looking for Chacin, Towers, Halsey, or possibly even Chan Ho Park. Otherwise you may be relegated to trying to put a trade together to get one.

Just saw the FA pitchers noted at the bottom of your post.

 

If the Count is available, nab him! You could do a lot worse. Doug Davis is an option too, but he is very erratic, and is very much a home pitcher (this weekend's result notwithstanding).
