2021 Fantasy Baseball: The Save Game - Refining Your Closer Strategy

Wins may be the most challenging part of fantasy baseball to figure out, but closers are the most frustrating. On draft day, I have a tough time using a high draft pick on a one-category player. I also hate chasing closers and closers in waiting around in the free-agent market. The last couple of years in the high-stakes games, I've tried to cheat saves. At times it can work, but many times a weakness will cost me a bench spot, which hurts my team in other areas. If you cheat saves and you're mistaken, you need to roster more inventory to increase your chances of finding the next closer to earn a job.
