Top 100 RP rankings for Saves + Holds leagues in 2024.
Below you can find my updated reliever rankings for SV+HLD leagues. In the Hold Up article from today, there are more player notes regarding this week’s updates. During the regular season, this weekly post will feature a weekly leaderboard as well as an injury chart.
Rick resides in the Boston area and has experience as a player and coach at the collegiate level. He has been covering relievers for Pitcher List since 2017.
Thanks for this Rick. Any pitchers particular that move up on this list in a Net Saves Plus Holds league?
wow. Y. Cano all the way down in tier 4? Not buying it. Dude finished as RP15 in my S+H league last year, right behind Doval.
Cano’s ridiculous start to the season make his numbers from last year look great, but he really just settled in to an average reliever once hitters began to figure him out. Over his last 51 IP, he had a 3.00 ERA (good), 1.35 WHIP (meh), and 18.5% K rate (terrible). He’ll likely get 20+ holds again, but the ceiling isn’t too exciting.
Seranthony Dominguez does not even make this list? I expect he will be given a chance as the top right-hander in this bullpen to start the season, albeit with a short leash due to the presence of Hoffman and Kerkering.
Seranthony has looked fine this spring, and I do have hope last year was just a fluke…but I still would imagine Hoffman and possibly even Kerkering are in front of him in the pecking order. He’ll need to earn that trust back.
where shelby miller and yuki matsui
I considered Miller, but last year looks awfully fluky. He does have opportunity as a plus, so there’s a chance he winds up in the next top 100, but I do have concerns he won’t be able to replicate the magic from the Dodgers last season.
o i found yuki
well he has replicated it in spring, and nobody in this tigers bullpen is gonna keep him from being the closer if the trend continues
Hey Rick, what’s your thinking behind Megill all the way up at 21? And why is Uribe so much lower? Thanks for doing these!
Hey Rick, thanks for the intel! just confirming – Jhoan Duran at 15 factors in his time on IL, correct?
Ian Hamilton seems like the kind of monster-in-waiting that comes out of nowhere to become a top ten reliever.
All of us in S+H leagues thank you for this Rick. Where would Kopech slot in?
I’m pretty intrigued by Kopech
