7 years agoSt. Louis Cardinals manager Mike Matheny said on Monday that the arrival of closer Greg Holland "only solves the ninth." The bullpen roles ahead of the ninth inning are still to be sorted out. Matheny went further to say that rookie Jordan Hicks could be used in an Archie Bradley role. Diamondbacks reliever Bradley is used similarly to Andrew Miller, in that he comes in at the crucial moments late in the game before the closer enters in the ninth. The Cardinals bullpen has the upside to be a very strong one, but the roles must sort themselves out first. Hicks should be owned in all holds leagues at this point.--David A Marcillo - RotoBaller
