BALLER MOVE: Draft target ~pick 300 CURRENT ADP: ~475 overall ANALYSIS: Once a starter, now a reliever, instant eyeballs emoji from me.

Relief Pitchers to Target for Holds in 2022 Fantasy Baseball Drafts

Welcome back fellow RotoBallers. One area I implore you to explore is getting your butt into some leagues with Holds as a scoring category.
