The Toronto Blue Jays may be willing to forgo signing a marquee free-agent closer - and acquire one via trade instead.FOX Sports is reporting that the Blue Jays have inquired about the availability of Colorado Rockies reliever Huston Street. The emergence of Rafael Betancourt as a reliable ninth-inning option has made Street expendable in Denver.Street is owed $7.5 million this season with a $9-million player option for 2013.Toronto is seeking a closer after going through most of last season with a rotation that included Jon Rauch, Jason Frasor and Frank Francisco.The Blue Jays have also been linked to former Los Angeles Dodgers stopper Jonathan Broxton and longtime Minnesota Twins closer Joe Nathan.

2011 Positional Review: Pitchers

Via The Southpaw  |  November 15, 2011
Buckle up folks, this is going to be a long one. I thought about doing the relievers as a separate post but that would give you the impression that they are more highly regarded than they are. the truth is the best relief prospect is usually no better than the 15th or so Starter prospect, and most of the best major league relievers were not relievers in the minors.
