Closers
(Data File)
Write-up Article
Closers, due to their limited number of innings pitched, do not have a
critical impact to the standard fantasy baseball team. I look at
them as a necessary evil, but a necessary one nonetheless. While
no closer has accumulated enough FBHOF points for induction, this page
highlights the best of them. Below are the peak 5 year averages
for the Top-5 closers of the fantasy era plus a listing of the Top-25.
