PLAYING TIME: Brian Wilson to miss 2012

NATIONAL LEAGUE

Giants closer Brian Wilson (RHP, SF) confirmed April 15 that he will undergo surgery, ending his 2012 season. (Keeper-league owners, take heart: Wilson quipped to a beat writer that he plans to pitch "forever," so you can look forward to saves for centuries more... just not in 2012.)

For the moment, no official replacement has been named. What do the options look like?
