2017 Top Fantasy Relief Pitchers
Aroldis Chapman and Kenley Jansen are battling to be the top fantasy closer drafted this season … although young, the Yankees will be improved … I think the games New York wins will be close … Zach Britton was 47-for-47 in save opportunities last season … I may be in the minority, but K-Rod should get more respect than he does … I know when he blows a save opp., it can get ugly and quick … but Rodriguez has converted 82-of-89 saves over the past two seasons for the Brewers and Tigers … the Rangers’ Sam Dyson saved 20 games in 23 opportunities after the All-Star break last season
