The Closer Report has created
the first ever Closer Draft Kit. The kit will be comprised of a
ranking of the top 50 relievers, player projections, injury risk and
stability rating, team save
projections, closer ADP, and a draft strategy and closer talk podcast.
My projections are based on a formula that uses
a combination of past statistics and a system of variables that
project "the best case scenario" player projections. I use injury,
consistency, stability and other "secret recipe" variables for all
players.

TSP (Team Save Projections), RDR (Recommended Draft Round, based on
a 12-team league), ADP
(Average Draft Position), courtesy of
Mock Draft Central, IR (Injury Risk), S(Stability. Stats Saves-Wins-ERA-WHIP-Strikeouts.
Injury risk (1-10) is evaluated with 10 being no injury risk and 5 a
certain trip to the DL. Stability (1-10) is a measure of the
closers consistency and job security.
