MLB Closers and Saves Report - Week 9

Another quiet week in the world of bullpens, and few fantasy owners will complain about that. After a whirlwind of moves to start the season that lasted through most of April and May, it's been oddly comforting to have two weeks straight where bullpens allow us to relax. But, as always, it wasn't a completely quiet week, […]

MLB Closers and Saves Report - Week 8

It was a fairly quiet week for bullpens this week, especially given the frenzy of moves we've seen in the early going. Still, a few key things did happen and there were some great performances to discuss, so let's take a look at this week's news. Here we go.Be sure to check all of our […]

MLB Closers and Saves Report - Week 7

Another week gone by, and another few bullpens shaken up. It seems to be the theme of the season, at least early on: managers are not afraid to make changes in the ninth inning and leashes for closers are getting shorter and shorter. It has resulted in the fantasy-abhorred closer-by-committee thing happening a few more […]

MLB Closers and Saves Report - Week 6

Now this is a story all about how bullpens got flipped turned upside down this week. Injuries and demotions made for a pretty wild week for closers and other relievers, certainly sending fantasy players scurrying to the waiver wire after making drops or DL moves. Time to jump in and take a look at the Week […]

MLB Closers and Saves Report - Week 5

We are through the first month of the season, and bullpens are starting to figure out their real identities. Some teams have stuck with closers through early-season struggles, others are on their second or third closers already. It was a crazy month of April, with nearly one third of closers fighting for their jobs, due […]

MLB Closers and Saves Report - Week 4

Week 3 gave us a flurry of bullpen moves so naturally, week 4 was mostly quiet, with nothing Earth-shattering really going down in any team's bullpen. There were still a few important things happening, and of course there were some great performances to discuss, so let's carefully jump in so we can avoid the DL. […]

MLB Closers & Saves Report - Week 3

After a relatively quiet start to the season, bullpen-wise at least, this week brought a few important ninth inning changes. Some might be temporary, some might be more permanent, but all will be critical to fantasy players over the next few weeks. Let's take a look at what happened in the bullpens around Major League […]

MLB Closers Report - Week 3

It's been a wild start to the season, with bees, cats, and squirrels all already playing a part in Major League games. But what about that other strange animal that plays a much bigger part in baseball and especially in fantasy? I'm talking about closers. It's been a wild first few games for them too. […]

The Latest Bullpen Updates You Need to Know for Your Drafts

We're less than a week away from Opening Day and on the verge of a huge fantasy draft weekend. It's finally time for baseball season to be in (don't say "full swing" don't say "full swing") full effect! Many fantasy leagues have already drafted, but there is still a waiver wire to scour and buy-low/sell-high […]

Closer Hot Seats and Setup Men Who Want To Sit In Them

"Closer" can more or less be considered a starting role in fantasy baseball. It's not a starting role in the sense that the player actually starts every game, nor does he start in a regular rotation, but he has a set role that his manager uses him in. The whole point of trying to convince you […]

Mid-March Bullpen Updates for Closers & Saves

We're almost halfway through March and we have about as much clarity at the back end of some bullpens as we had in December. While many bullpens are set in stone, there are still a few heated competitions happening across Grapefruit and Cactus League play as managers try to decide who to hand the ball […]

2017 MLB Closer Depth Chart: American League West

Let's head out west for the final early-Spring Training MLB Closer Depth Chart article. The American League West has many intriguing arms, but very few set roles. As Spring Training and the World Baseball Classic move along, there will (hopefully) be more clarity in terms of eighth and ninth inning roles out west, but for […]

2017 MLB Closer Depth Chart: American League Central

The American League Central features the AL Champion Cleveland Indians, then a pair of if-everything-goes-right possible contenders in the Detroit Tigers and Kansas City Royals, and rounded out by the rebuilding Minnesota Twins and Chicago White Sox. Of course, the "good" teams have good fantasy options, but there is some value to be drawn from […]

2017 MLB Closer Depth Chart: American League East

The American League East has a lot of well known teams and a lot of well known closers. Ninth-inning arms from this division are likely to be among the first closers drafted in fantasy baseball drafts this season. Also, the AL East is the only division where every single team has a locked-in closer with […]

2017 MLB Closer Depth Chart: National League West

The National League West is another top-heavy division, with the Los Angeles Dodgers and San Francisco Giants again sure to make things interesting all the way to the end of the season. The Arizona Diamondbacks and Colorado Rockies would need tons of things to go right to have a chance to compete, and the lowly […]

2017 MLB Closer Depth Chart: National League Central

The National League Central features the 2016 World Series Champions and baseball's darlings, the Chicago Cubs. But there are two other solid teams as well in the Pittsburgh Pirates and St. Louis Cardinals. The Milwaukee Brewers and Cincinnati Reds are likely in for long 2017 seasons, but that doesn't mean they are devoid of talent […]

2017 MLB Closer Depth Chart: National League East

It's still early to talk baseball. Spring Training hasn't started yet. The Super Bowl buzz hasn't even died down. But it's never too early to talk about baseball, especially when it comes to the critical, sometimes-obnoxious category of saves and the closers who earn them. Today we are here to discuss the MLB closer depth chart […]
