RELIEVERS: August 2018 BPV leaders

This week, we examine the BPV leaders from August (with at least 10 innings and 200 BPV) to see if there is someone worth plucking for September. Some names are obvious and have been terrific all year, like Edwin Díaz (RHP, SEA), but others are not so obvious, like Jesse Chavez (RHP, CHC). Here are the August numbers:
