MLB Rumor Central: Who will close for the Phillies?

Through their first three games this season, the Philadelphia Phillies' bullpen has been an absolute disaster.

David Hernandez, believed to be the favorite for the closer role in spring training, allowed three runs without recording an out when tasked with protecting a one-run lead in the eighth inning on Opening Day against the Cincinnati Reds. Two days later, Dalier Hinojosa, believed to be second in line for the closer role, blew his save opportunity with a 2-1 lead entering the ninth inning.

So who will the Phillies turn to next to close out their games?
