I actually think closers are devalued now and have their value enhanced in a SV+H format, where rostering them doesn't directly damage your ability to win the H category. Of the 7 teams with the most saves, 5 are bottom-7 in holds. Jaysblue does well in both, but his strategy is rostering SP/RPs. Spanky is the only team that does well in both cats, while rostering a traditional pitching staff. I don't think that success in one category should hurt your ability to have success in another.

This has bothered me for awhile, but does anyone else think we could improve the way we handle reliever counting stats? Having saves and holds as separate categories, with only 5 RP slots doesn't really incentivize rostering the best relief arms (many of which are closers). If you're rostering more than 2 closers, you're going to win saves every week, but punt holds. And often, if you have even 1 or 2 closers, you'll lose holds to a team with an inferior pen because they have 0 closers and 5 holds guys. Feels like having a single SV+H category and then adding a new 7th category (QS?) would better reward finding the best relievers. And closers would still be incentivized over holds guys because they typically get 30-40 saves and holds guys are more in the 20-25 holds range.

STFU Jim

This is my annual complaint about how much the All Star break f***ing sucks
-
Tough year for some of the ageing Booze Hounds. Abreu and LMH just fell off a cliff.
-
14M team option next year that almost certainly won't be picked up. Costing himself tens of millions this year.
-
How do you keep hitting a guy 2nd in the order when he's this checked out. Dude should be sent home.
-
lol, just posted about it on Fantrax. I tried to move that ******* for like 6 months.

He's completely drenched and his command f***ing sucks -
Just realized Sam Dyson was never given another shot after his suspension despite being a pretty effective reliever.
-
Is it just me or does this happen disproportionately to the Yankees
-
Sale has only thrown like 105 innings since his age-30 season. Crazy how everyone calling him a time bomb because he's twiggy with a violent-looking delivery was basically right.
-
He sucks! That FIP is going up when he stops getting lucky on fly balls.
-
They have zero good young players on their MLB roster and the prospect pool of a team that has been a playoff contender for the last decade. But they've been terrible since 2018. The extent to which they've avoided collecting assets is actually remarkable. Adael Amador might actually be the only piece of real value. Like, in their entire org.
-
Also, now that his ERA is predictably hovering around 5 - shame on everyone who was fanboying their Kyle Gibson signing when he ran hot in April and May. They should be utterly embarrassed for supplementing their good young offense with him and Cole Irvin.
-
The Orioles are who we thought they were. When BTS and The Sheriff of BJMB are aligned on an issue, you might as well bet the farm on it.
-
If I were contending I wouldn’t want Bellinger on my roster. And if I were rebuilding I’d rather have Sale to hopefully trade if he comes back and has a couple of good starts. So Sale in any context.
-
Rendon just died again
-
I has forgotten that she inexplicably gave Avisail 52M and are still rostering him. They also seem to fully support Jean Segura’s bid to put up the worst fWAR of all time.
-
That feel when you try to subtly troll Terminator and he likes your post instead of biting.
-
Yeah, they're going to need an impact bat or two. And I don't think they're going to get any from their system. If any team could benefit from a mega-deal for a star bat, it's probably them.

Marlins are going to be 13 game over 0.500 today. Give Kim Ng the executive of the year trophy.
