This morning, ESPN.com’s Buster Olney weighs in with some possible destinations for two likely available closers, Oakland’s Huston Street and Baltimore’s George Sherrill.
- Olney speculates the Orioles would seem to have a great potential fit with the Dodgers, who need a closer.
- He says the Angels will need a closer next season if Francisco Rodriguez leaves and could use a lefty now.
- The Red Sox, Olney says, would probably love to land Sherrill and have prospects to offer, but isn’t sure the O’s would trade with a division rival.
- He says Brewers could be a match for either Street or Sherrill. Yesterday, Tom Haudricourt of the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel reported that the Brewers might be scouting Street.
