MLB Closers And Saves Waiver Wire Watch For Week 3

The revolving door of relievers gets more interesting by the week. We still have a handful of closers who have yet to give up a run, but don't get your hopes up, they all will. Angels closer Huston Street has yet to allow a base runner but my guess is that will change pretty shortly. […]

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deeper Leagues / Monitor in All Leagues OWNED IN: 8% of Fleaflicker Leagues If Brock Holt had an everyday job, he’d be a must add.
