News
	Cade Smith needed just nine pitches to record a save in Friday's 3-2 win over the Marlins, allowing no hits or walks with no strikeouts. Matthew Adam Sat, Jul 11th	Ross posted a 1.69 ERA, 1.03 WHIP, and 39:22 K:BB across 32 innings and 28 appearances at Triple-A in 2025 and is already on the 40-man roster. Syracuse placed him on the 7-day IL on March 27 with arm fatigue. Bruno Mulé Wed, Apr 8th
	Cade Smith struck out two batters in a scoreless frame to earn the save in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Twins. Matthew Adam Fri, Jul 10th	Ross advanced from High-A to Triple-A last season, compiling a 2.21 ERA and 1.11 WHIP across 53 innings during his rapid climb through New York's farm system. Bruno Mulé Sat, Mar 7th
	Cade Smith threw 16 pitches over one scoreless inning in Sunday's 7-6 loss to the White Sox. Matthew Adam Mon, Jul 6th
	Cade Smith struck out one batter while allowing two hits over a scoreless frame to earn the save in Sunday's 6-5 win over the Mariners. Matthew Adam Mon, Jun 29th
	Cade Smith struck out one batter while allowing one hit over a scoreless frame to earn the save in Saturday's 4-3 win over the Mariners. Matthew Adam Sun, Jun 28th
Notes
	Cade Smith has quickly emerged as one of baseball's most dominant late-inning arms. His bat-missing ability has remained consistent across both seasons, posting a 35.1% strikeout rate over his first 149 MLB innings with excellent control (6.1% BB%). While his ERA rose to 2.93 in 2025 as his fly-ball rate and HR% ticked up slightly, the underlying profile still supports high-end relief production. The 2026 projections forecast roughly 30 saves, 91 strikeouts, and a 3.05 ERA across 71 innings as Cleveland's primary closer in the top tier of relievers. Kelly Kirby - FantasyPros
	I know Mason Miller is THE relief pitcher household name these days, but Cade Smith could be joining that conversation after this year. In his only two seasons in the big leagues, Smith has posted 12+ K/9s and sub 2 FIPs in each season, making him as reliable and excellent as any reliever in the game.
