RELIEVERS: K-BB as a leading indicator

Last column, we discussed LIMA filters. This week, we do some very simple filtering with a leading indicator: K-BB. K-BB projections for relievers can really make some reliever targets stand out against a backdrop of obvious elite relievers such as Kenley Jansen (RHP, LA) and Craig Kimbrel (RHP, BOS), who are #1 and #2 on the list. Some of you will be surprised at who is the projected #4 reliever in K-BB, though. Here is a chart of the top five relievers for 2018 by projected K-BB:
