do a specific search
I just did a 15 minimum IP, HOLDS, FIP, K/BB, HR/9, K/9 ranking... and I came up with some interesting names.

1. Octavio Dotel, CHA, AL
2. Rafael Perez, CLE, AL
3. Carlos Marmol, CHN, NL
5. Mike Adams, SD, NL
6. Neal Cotts, CHN, NL
7. Matt Thornton, CHA, AL (your guy -- good pickup)
8. Scott Linebrink, CHA, AL (he was very good a few yrs ago)
9. Scott Eyre, PHI, NL
10. Jon Rauch, ARZ, NL
12. Doug Brocail, HOU, NL
13. Grant Balfour, TAM, AL
15. Damaso Marte, NYA, AL
16. Hong-Chih Kuo, LOS, NL
17. Jeremy Affeldt, SF, NL (could get save opps at start)
19. Bob Howry, SF, NL
20. Mark DiFelice, MIL, NL
21. Joe Nelson, FLA, NL

Some interesting names here that I wouldn't have thought of (I excluded designated closers). The guys you have are great... and I believe Scot Shields is a GREAT option, as long as you realize his peripherals are killer... BUT, while it is hard to predict holds, he has been spot on consistent in that category for as long as I can remember.

Holds
I know holds are famously difficult to predict (at least for me as its a category I have always placed in the bottom third of in the keeper league I am in) but this year I drafted Shields, Thornton, and Balfour all with the hopes that I could pick up holds while possibly vulturing a few saves. Any others anyone might target?
