[USML Announce] Saves + Holds Redux

[Andy Klein]

I proposed this last spring and received a distinctly unenthusiastic
response.  But I am re-proposing that we move to Saves + Holds as a
category instead of just Saves.  That better reflects the reality of MLB
pitching value today.  It also would end what is, IMHO, an inordinate focus
on playing the "closer carousel" in our league.

I would be up for doing this immediately -- and I say that as someone who
will otherwise retain a closer.  But I suppose the typical way of doing
this would be to make it effective next season.

Last year, we agreed to implement the change if we voted to do so by
mid-season.  But the proposal died for lack of interest.

Thoughts?
