Shelby Miller, RP, Diamondbacks, 39%

Miller isn’t getting enough respect from fantasy managers as an effective reliever who is clearly the closer on a respectable team. The 34-year-old has posted excellent fantasy stats (2.04 ERA, 0.99 WHIP), which are backed up by a 39:11 K:BB ratio. And Miller is far from a one-year wonder, having logged a 2.98 ERA and a 0.95 WHIP across the past three seasons. Aside from a couple 3-inning saves in blowout wins, Miller has earned all of the team’s five saves since Justin Martinez was lost for the season due to an elbow injury.
