Who do you take in a dynasty league if you can only keep one?

My opinion is
1. Balfour: not crazy about his k/9. Generally like >1/IP in a closer; also not crazy about his save opportunities with the A's historically
2. Henderson: amazing k/9; good number of save chances with the brewers; has not had any exposure to the role, so you don't know how he will react
3. Axford: absolute disaster at the momement and most of last year. Has the stuff to be a legitimate closer (as proven previously), but I want no shares in any league.

I'd take Kelvin Herrera over all 3

Axford's velocity has dropped from 98+ to 91-92. At this point I would go with Kelvin Herrera. Got the save today after bailing Holland out of a jam, posted a sub 3 ERA last year with a good k/9.

Out of those three, I'd say Balfour because his role is solid.

If you're going Oakland relievers you go cook or Doolittle

If you want a keeper closer type go Rex brothers. Only a matter of time before betancourt gets dealt

cbs says crow was called on only because Holland made appearances the last two games... I picked up Crow in one of my leagues in hope cbs is wrong.
