RELIEVERS: One dollar or less
Mar 21 2012
This column looks at relievers who can be had for $1 or in the reserve rounds of AL-only and NL-only 5x5 drafts but can provide profit, due to skills and potential roles. The filters used include: projection of at least 29 IP, 6.0 Dom, 2.0 Cmd and 1.0 HR/9, 70 BPV, at or under $1 for AL-only and NL-only 5x5 projected value and then a scan of injuries and roles.
