Closers

I know I’m cheating here because this isn’t technically a player, but closers are always drafted way too high in every draft.

There are very few closer who, year in and year out, you can depend on. Closers start going in rounds nine or 10 and for a one or two category player, that is way too high. Saves are very unpredictable and closers lose their job often during the long MLB season.

You can find good value closers late in the draft or during the year because of an injury or poor performance. Instead of being one of the first to draft a closer, just wait. Being the first to draft a closer is like being the first guy to draft a defense or kicker in fantasy football. Don’t be that guy. You can draft players such as

You can draft players such as Aaron Sanchez, Miguel Sano and Gary Sanchez instead. Again, be patient for when it comes to drafting a closer this year.

I love fantasy sports more than you love most things in life. I am great at giving fantasy advice because if it doesn't work out, it's the players fault not mine. I love to help others with their fantasy sports questions and instead of following politics or other important topics that are going on in the world, I do fantasy research. Let me help you guys win your leagues and in daily sports.
