Robert Suarez

Robert Suarez worked a scoreless ninth inning, giving up one hit while striking out one to earn the save in Friday's 8-6 win over the Rockies.

Fantasy Impact

Suarez is now up to four saves on the year, as he's been every bit as good as the Braves hoped when they signed him this past offseason. He's expected to revert back to a setup role soon, as Raisel Iglesias (shoulder) will return from IL, but Suarez is still worth a roster spot in many fantasy leagues.

Robert Suarez worked a scoreless ninth inning, allowing one hit and one walk while striking out one on the way to his third save of the season in Friday's 5-3 win over the Phillies.

Fantasy Impact

With Raisel Iglesias (shoulder) still on the IL, Suarez continues to take care of business at the backend of the Braves' bullpen. Suarez has nailed down all three of his save chances so far this season, cruising to a 0.77 ERA with 12 strikeouts over 11 2/3 innings.

Robert Suarez allowed one hit over a scoreless frame to earn the save in Wednesday's 8-6 win over the Nationals.

Fantasy Impact

So far, Suarez has been everything the Braves signed him to be and more. The 35-year-old righty picked up his second save of the season Wednesday night and has allowed just one run through 11 appearances so far. Suarez will continue on in the closer role for the Braves until Raisel Iglesias (shoulder) returns from the IL.

Robert Suarez struck out two batters in a scoreless ninth inning to earn the save in Saturday's 3-1 win over the Phillies.

Fantasy Impact

With the Braves regular closer Raisel Iglesias (shoulder) unavailable, Suarez stepped in to earn his first save of the season Saturday. Suarez was an All-Star closer for the Padres each of the last two seasons, so finishing off games is nothing new for him. Iglesias has not hit the IL, and there's been little indication that he will. If Iglesias were to miss any time, however, Suarez would vault into near top-tier closer status for fantasy purposes.

Robert Suarez and the Atlanta Braves have agreed on a three-year, $45 million contract.

Fantasy Impact

Suarez finished with a career-high 40 saves in 2025 while posting an impressive 2.97 ERA and 0.90 WHIP. He has compiled 76 saves over the past two seasons, leading all of MLB. Despite that success, he’ll serve as the primary setup man and backup closer for the Braves with Raisel Iglesias locked in as the closer. Suarez’s fantasy value takes a hit in standard formats, but he remains extremely valuable in leagues that reward holds.
