John Axford

3.
Brian Wilson
This World Series Champ has proven to be a top closer over the past few years. With San Fransiscos great pitching and mediocre offense, he should have plenty more save chances this year.
5 points - added 13 years ago by succaneers -

Joakim Soria
4 points - added 13 years ago by succaneers -
5.
Heath Bell
Contract negotiations may be a slight distraction, but if Bell plays a full season in San Diego, he should be a top five closer.

Rafael Soriano
As of this posting Soriano is yet to sign with a team for 2011. But wherever he signs, he should be the primary closer and post outstanding numbers. The Rays, Braves and White Sox all seem interested but no one is willing to give up the long term deal and high dollar values he is looking to receive.

Jose Valverde
Last year, Valverde owners worried the move from the NL to the AL would hurt his value. All he did was post a 3.00 ERA with a 1.16 WHIP. Look for him to be the primary closer in Detroit and excel.
