Fullerton's sleeper could be 6-foot-6, 225-pound lefthander Ryan Paul, who came to the Titans out of Pierce Junior College in Los Angeles. Paul has been drafted three times. The Braves took him in the 42nd round in 2002 out of Moorpark High in suburban Los Angeles, and after missing 2003 he was picked again out of Pierce in 2004 (47th round, Mets) and 2005 (28th round, Tigers). He hasn't had a stint longer than two innings all season as the main set-up man to Pestano, but he has shown command of a high-80s fastball and sweepy slider from a low three-quarters slot, and he could improve his stock after taking over the closer role in Pestano's absence.
