[USML Announce] Broxton Deal Closes K-9 Unit

[Mark Blocker]

At last some good news for the Bombers....


Greg Holland will replace Jonathan Broxton as Kansas City's closer,
according to manager Ned Yost.
Run -- don't walk -- to your fantasy waiver wire to pick up Holland if he's
still available. Broxton was traded to the Reds on Tuesday, opening the
door. Over the last two seasons, the right-handed Holland has a 2.53 ERA
and 130/42 K/BB rate over 99-plus innings. He should carry great fantasy
value through the end of the regular season.
