Who's going to be the Rockies closer in 2009?

Huston Street has the name and experience.  Manny Corpas is a known commodity in Denver.  Both are listed as closer on the Rockies' mlb.com depth chart.

Who's the ninth inning guy, and why?  Who will start the season?  Will that guy flame out?

I want to know for some selfish reasons, I have not heard much about the Rockies' closer debate, and I want to be prepared for fantasy drafts.

Thanks, and good luck this season.

If Corpas is producing

in Spring Training, the closer spot is his. It’ll take quite a downturn for the ball to be handed over to Street full-time, at least early in the season; the Rox want Corpas to be the closer (after all, he’s the one signed to a multi-year deal),

I agree

Street has not shown much of anything so far in Spring Training, so unless things change dramatically the job is going to go to Corpas
