Since the last set of Position Tiers I did was for the relievers, I figured it was the perfect time to update the Closer Report. I will be going back to this page as often as needed this year and will offer continuous coverage as to who is handling the ninth inning duties for each team. I’ll cover who the main guy is for saves and who could be next in line if injury or failure should occur. I’ll also be throwing out a few names that you should probably be keeping track of, especially on teams that may have a suspect closer situation. This shoudl be a valuable tool for you, not only in your pre-draft work, but for mid-season pick-ups as well. Good luck and enjoy.

i just liked to say that your fantasy baseball guide review for 2009 was pretty off when it came to fanball.com magazine. Yes they did have javy vasquez ranked 7th overall and look at what he did with the brazes. He had a 2.87 ERA 1.03 WHIP with 219 IP, 238 SO against 44 BB, not to mention an opponent BA of .223. If it wasn’t for the fact that the braves couldn’t score last season he could have easily won 20 games. I cant say he will do that again with the yanks because he definitely wont in NY. As for Ellsbury, the man led the entire league with 70 SB’s, and hits atop the lineup one of the best scoring teams in the Majors and also hit for a .300+ BA. I personally think fanball.com knows exactly what they are talking about, but we all have our own opinion.
I actually agree with you 100%. It was an associate writer who did the fantasy magazine review and he and I differed on several issues, hence the fact that he is no longer writing for this site. He lived and died for the Fantasy Baseball Guide, a source that I like as well, but not so much that I think it’s opinions and player rankings are so vastly superior to everyone else’s.
Look for the 2010 fantasy baseball magazine review coming soon.
