Sleeper Alert: Dustin Hermanson, RP, CIN

Hermanson, recently signed by the Reds, becomes the immediate front runner for saves this season. During the White Sox incredible 2005 run, Hermanson racked up 34 saves with a 2.04 ERA. If Hermanson wins the closer job, I think it is reasonable to expect 20-25 saves with a 3.80 ERA. Don't buy into Hermanson before guys like Dempster, Torres or Isringhausen but he is worth a last round flier pick.
