Holton outperformed his expected stats once again, but he generated fantasy value in multiple ways. The lefty earned seven wins, eight saves and 14 holds during the regular season along with a pristine 0.76 WHIP that ranked sixth among qualified relievers. Holton's strikeout and whiff rates were below league average, but he limited traffic thanks to a 4.8 percent walk rate (94th percentile). Holton was excellent against left-handed hitters, holding them to a .153 BAA with a sinker-sweeper approach. He also fared better against right-handed bats (.187 BAA), deploying a cutter, changeup and fastball with the occasional curve. With six pitches at his disposal, Holton will be a valuable weapon for the Tigers in 2025, especially since he was their most trusted reliever in the playoffs. Holton's versatility - being able to serve as an opener, closer, or work multiple innings - may influence whom Detroit deploys in the ninth inning on any particular day. Read Past Outlooks
