2025 Fantasy Outlook
Acquired by Baltimore at last year's trade deadline, Soto turned in a poor 5.09 ERA, 1.53 WHIP and 21:7 K:BB over 17.2 regular season innings with the Orioles before covering a scoreless two-thirds of an inning during his lone playoff appearance. While his overall performance has suffered the past few years, the hard-throwing lefty posted above-average Statcast metrics in 2024 with a 31 percent whiff rate (86th percentile), 26.6 percent strikeout rate (76th) and 51.4 percent groundball rate (86th) while averaging 97.5 mph on his fastball (94th). Unfortunately, walks continue to be a major issue for Soto, whose ratios are likely to be a negative for any fantasy team. The 29-year-old has racked up 35 holds and five saves over the past two seasons, but he appears destined to work in middle relief in 2025. Read Past Outlooks

Fans three in scoreless appearance
Soto struck out three in a scoreless sixth inning during Monday's 7-1 loss to the Rays, allowing one baserunner on a hit batsman.
ANALYSIS
Soto had a shaky start to June, serving up a home run in his first outing of the month, but he's now rattled off six scoreless appearances in a row since then. The hard-throwing left-hander had a 4.67 ERA for the season as of May 23, but he's improved that mark to a healthier 3.51 to go with a 1.21 WHIP and 31:8 K:BB over 25.2 innings following Monday's effort. Soto has been a key setup man for closer Felix Bautista with 15 holds, the third-highest figure for this category in the American League so far.

Past Fantasy Outlooks

2021
Soto entered his first year of salary arbitration in line to receive a significant raise after recording 30 saves for Detroit in 2022. In turn, the cost-conscious Tigers traded the hard-throwing lefty to Philadelphia last January. Soto filled a setup role for the Phillies and recorded a career-high 24 holds while reducing his perennially high double-digit walk rate to a career-best 8.8 percent. The 28-year-old maintained a 97th percentile fastball velocity (98.3 mph average) while throwing his slider at a career-high 39 percent clip. The pitch induced a 49 percent whiff rate and held opposing hitters to a mere .160 average. Soto was particularly effective against left-handed batters (.127 BAA) and figures to reprise setup duties in 2024.

Latest Fantasy Rumors

Likely to be traded
Soto is one of several relief pitchers the Orioles might make available for trade before the deadline, Jim Bowden of The Athletic speculates.
ANALYSIS
The Orioles have had a disappointing season in 2025, and it wouldn't be surprising to see some of their relievers being involved in trade talks over the upcoming weeks. Soto's numbers have experienced an uptick compared to recent years, and he owns a 3.97 ERA across 22.2 innings.
