The trade deadline is one week away, which means the landscape for saves around baseball is about to change.

I've got Mike Carter on the line to try to predict who exactly will be pitching in the ninth inning around baseball one week from today here on the Roto Wire Fantasy Baseball podcast.

Good morning, everybody, and welcome to the Thursday edition of the Rotoire Fantasy Baseball

podcast. Eric Hulterman here here and my guest today is one of my

fellow co-competitors in glarf it's mike carter of fan track slash rotoballer and the host of

the fantasy baseball beat podcast one of the host another one last week on in torres And Mike, busy time of year.

Glad I can catch you for an hour right before you run out on vacation.

Good morning, my fellow glarfer.

We know that vacation does not stop the fantasy baseball talk nor the fantasy baseball season, does it, Eric?

Very true. Yeah, can't go losing your league just because you're paying attention to your family and not your family they don't really want to pay that much attention to me anyway so we're good

okay fair enough sounds like you'll have plenty of time to scroll your phone all vacation. Looking

forward to that, but we're going to jump right into it. We've got a tight hour here, and we've got a

very full main topic on today's show, a closer trade deadline preview. So what we're going to do

on today's show is look at the teams in different groups. We've

got bubble teams, obvious buyers, obvious sellers. We're going to try to figure out how many of

these teams might have a new closer a week to 10 days from now. Let's jump right into it with the

teams on the bubble. I've got these teams listed alongside their fan graphs playoff

odds. Technically, this is their fan graphs playoff odds from yesterday. So some of these might

have changed by a percentage point or two. We're going to go from top to bottom in each of these

groups. And for these bubble teams, Mike, we're going to ask the question, if they buy,

does the current top guy keep his job?

And if they sell, who gets the saves after the deadline?
