Follow on Google News | Fantasy Baseball: The Best Relievers That StartWe're now well into the season and some of the RP/SP experiments have already blown up while others have been quite successful.
By: Courtney Scott The handful of elite RP/SP's that I feel offer the best chance at continuing with their impressive performances thus far include Jeff Samardzija, Anthony Bass, Neftali Feliz, Lance Lynn, and Ross Detwiler. With the exception of Bass, all of them have at least four quality starts and three wins. However, Bass has some of the best overall numbers excluding QS and W and he plays in a very pitcher-friendly ballpark. Detwiler was chosen over a veteran for the 5th spot in the rotation for a reason early in the year, while Samardzija, Lynn and Feliz are converting from the bullpen with great success. After reviewing their minor league histories, it is clear that these are the candidates to buy while dumping the rest.

Watch out for Sale's sore shoulder as he has recently flip-flopped between the bullpen and rotation to ease the strain. Also, Doubront was hit in the head by a line drive so there could be lingering effects. However, these relievers will still contribute innings, strikeouts, and the occasional win while filling a valuable RP roster slot. If you can stomach the bump in ERA and WHIP, then things might work out well for you. Check out our new Fantasy Sports Forum by visiting http://www.fantasydraftstrategy.com/ End
