RELIEVERS: Names plucked from the waiver wire in Tout Wars AL and LABR NL

Today this column takes a look at three relievers who are free agents in the AL Tout Wars and three who are free agents in NL LABR.

These six relievers are the most interesting relief names at the moment, but trades have a way of changing things quickly this time of year. It gives you some idea of how deep these leagues can be when none of the six pitchers have more than an outside shot at saves. However, all six have solid ERA/WHIP over the past 30 days and could be a nice safe haven over some flammable starters or risky relievers that teams have active in these kinds of leagues.
