Tony Santillan

Tony Santillan has avoided arbitration with the Cincinnati Reds and will make $1.8 million in 2026.

Fantasy Impact

Santillan enjoyed his best season of his four-year major league career in 2025 as he pitched to a career-best 2.44 ERA in a career-high 80 games for the Reds. Santillan has been with the Reds' organization his entire career after being drafted in the second round back in 2015. He has a career ERA of 3.02 and has struck out 199 batters in 170 innings. He should remain a late-inning reliever, and pick up an occasional save, for the Reds in 2026.

Tony Santillan earned the save while allowing no hits and striking out two batters, despite issuing two walks in a tense outing against the Cubs.

Fantasy Impact

Santillan has not allowed an earned run in his last seven appearances, recording two saves and two holds during that stretch. He will continue to pitch in high-leverage situations for the final week of the season. Following yesterday's win, Santillan holds a 2.42 ERA and a 1.12 WHIP, with 7 saves and 4 blown saves across 77 appearances this season.

Tony Santillan worked around one hit allowed for the save on Wednesday against the Padres.

Fantasy Impact

Santillan needed just 13 pitches for the save. It was his sixth save on the season.

Tony Santillan struck out one batter in a perfect inning to earn the save in Sunday's win over the Diamondbacks.

Fantasy Impact

Given an infrequent chance to close on Sunday, Santillan delivered, allowing no runs en route to the save. Following that performance, his season numbers include a 3.00 ERA, a 1.03 WHIP, and two saves through 31 outings.

Tony Santillan allowed one hit and one walk over two-thirds of an inning in Tuesday’s loss to the Marlins.

Fantasy Impact

Santillan owns a 1.50 ERA and 0.83 WHIP over 12 innings this season. While he wasn’t charged with any runs, his high-traffic outing isn’t helping his case for higher-leverage opportunities. Still worth monitoring in deep holds leagues.
