2024 Fantasy Outlook
Foley relied on his sinker more than ever in 2023 (69.3% pitch usage) after adding a tick of velocity (97.2 mph average) on the pitch. 45 of Foley's 55 total strikeouts came via his sinker, which also yielded a 57.1% groundball percentage that was 14th-highest among qualified relievers. The 28-year-old also set career-best marks in games played (70), innings (69.0), WHIP (1.16) and holds (28) while leading Tigers relievers with a 2.82 WPA. Foley briefly took over closing duties in August and finished the year with 7 saves despite lacking whiffs (17.9%) and strikeouts (19.9%). The right-hander has been one of Detroit's most reliable relief pitchers over the past two seasons and should reprise his high-leverage role again in 2024. Even more save chances could be in his future, especially if Alex Lange's control issues persist. Read Past Outlooks
Secures one-out save Friday
Foley recorded the last out of Friday's 4-1 win over the White Sox to earn the save,
ANALYSIS
Tyler Holton was pitching well and possibly could have been asked to retire one more batter with a three-run lead, but the Tigers didn't mess around with a chance to secure an AL Wild Card spot. Foley did his part to kick-start the celebration by securing his 28th save of the season and seventh in the last two weeks. The righty has been a big piece of his team's surprise success this year, pitching to a 3.15 ERA and 1.18 WHIP across 60 innings. Foley will clearly have a high-leverage role in the postseason now as well.

How does Jason Foley compare to other relievers?
This section compares his stats with all relief pitcher seasons from the previous three seasons (minimum 30 innings)*. The bar represents the player's percentile rank.

2023 Fantasy Outlook
Foley will be one of the relievers trying to throw his name into the closing mix for the Tigers following their offseason trade of Gregory Soto. The big sinkerballer was one of the team's better relievers for most of 2022 before stumbling to the finish line in the final month. Foley doesn't get strikeouts but he boasts a career 56.8 percent ground ball rate and last year had just a 4.3 percent walk rate. The microscopic walk rate was atypical of the 27-year-old and he might need it to stick in order to make up for the lack of punchouts.

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.
