There is absolutely 0 reason for them to take the mound in STL again.

After Helsley is traded, who does everyone think will be the opening day closer next season?

No idea. He’s a FA anyways and it would be foolish to extend him. We’d be in the same boat regardless

The club will not be a contender…so just try guys until you they find a warm body that is reasonably competent

Helsley and Maton are gone..

I'm 100% behind trading Helsley and other bullpen pieces. It just got me thinking on who currently in this organization would fill that spot.

Could be an audition in spring training maybe bring in a veteran reliever late in spring like they did with maton. My pick if I had to chose now is lehay he can pitch a lot more than helsley and he can go two if needed unlike helsley. A closer always emerges Mujica Ryan Franklin closers aren’t hard to come up with
