Green = Steady, these closers can be confidently rostered in most, if not all leagues
Yellow = In Flux, the situation might be inconsistent, but the player is worth holding
Red = Avoid, these “closers” are ones to likely avoid outside of the deepest of leagues

(TC) = Trade Candidate: these closer roles could open up over the next month
