John surgery. Any deal that Soria signs this winter will be short-term and modestly-priced given his injury history, though Soria's track record would definitely earn him a lot of interest if he reaches free agency.

Last offseason's Hot Stove was notable for the hefty contracts signed by the likes of Albert Pujols and Prince Fielder, but the abundance of closers in free agency was an interesting secondary arc. A few stoppers signed for big bucks, and if there were any takeaway, it was that many teams have not necessarily adopted a frugal philosophy with respect to bullpen spending.

The upcoming offseason's class of free-agent closers is pretty interesting, too, and several of its potential members have options for 2013. Here's a list of those pitchers and a very preliminary lookCarposina smaragdias

Carposina smaragdias is a moth in the Carposinidae family. It was described by Turner in 1916. It is found in Australia, where it has been recorded from Queensland.

The wingspan is about 31 mm. The forewings are green with grey or brown markings, including a dark crescent near the costa.
