Marlins' Gregg Likely Gone?

With Matt Lindstrom of the Marlins doing great, the Marlins will likely let Kevin Gregg walk, who is set to make at least three million dollars next season. Gregg is 6-5 with a 2.68 ERA and 27 SV while Lindstrom, who has a 100 mph fastball, is 1-1 with a 3.19 ERA. The Marlins are 4.5 games out of first and are falling fast, so they would be smart to give Lindstrom more time. Gregg could still be put on waivers, but after seeing the Mets collapse last year, they think anything can happen.

Gregg could return to the Angels if they fail to resign Francisco Rodriguez. Other teams that could turn to Gregg include the Indians, Cardinals, and Padres.

I think the Cards are in need of a closer, and Gregg fits the bill. However they may be easing Chris Perez into that role.
