Past Fantasy Outlooks
2025
2024
2023
Foley's secondary offerings have been a work in progress, but he finally achieved success with his slider in 2024. The right-hander held opposing hitters to a mere .113 average and .145 slugging percentage that were among the best marks in the league for that pitch type. As expected, his usage of the slider increased by 14.1 percentage points - to 31.5 percent overall. Foley still favored his 97 mph sinker (54.7 percent usage), but it was crushed by opposing hitters (.299 AVG, 48.6 percent hard-hit). The 29-year-old still led Detroit with a career-high 28 saves and a 62.2% team save share, but he lost his grasp on closing duties for an extended period near mid-season and during the playoffs. Oddly, Foley only pitched once out of seven postseason contests, casting some doubt on his prospects for opening 2025 as the Tigers' closer. A shared role and more conservative save projection - perhaps 15-to-20 for Foley - might be a more realistic outcome.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Drawing trade interest
Mark Feinsand of MLB.com reports the Tigers have received "significant interest" for Foley on the trade market.
Analysis
The right-hander had a 3.88 ERA as a middle-relief option for Detroit last year, and he's excelled in a setup role this season with a 2.03 ERA, 1.06 WHIP and 39:10 K:BB over 44.1 innings. Foley isn't eligible for arbitration until 2025, so the Tigers aren't likely to move him without a strong offer.
