RELIEVERS: 2016 End-gamers

This week, the column chases the very end game itself—ADP of 500 or greater, with the best skill sets possible (Dom 9.5, Cmd ratio 3.0, HR/9 1.0 or less). There is tremendous overlap with the LIMA lists, but the focus is slightly different and the filters are tougher here for truly $1/end game options (listed by BPV). First, the AL relievers:
