Notes
	Andres Muñoz fully cemented himself as an elite fantasy closer in 2025, pairing a 1.73 ERA with 38 saves and maintaining his trademark swing-and-miss profile (32.7% K rate) despite occasional control volatility. Muñoz is a top-tier saves anchor with strong strikeout totals and elite run prevention, even if WHIP remains merely good rather than pristine due to walks. Entering his age-27 season with stable ninth-inning command in Seattle, Muñoz profiles as one of the safest high-end relievers in fantasy drafts. Kelly Kirby - FantasyPros
