Robert Suarez Note

Robert Suarez emerged as a premier fantasy closer in 2024, securing 36 saves (4th in MLB) with a 2.77 ERA and a 1.05 WHIP over 65 innings. A significant improvement in control was evident, as he reduced his walk rate by three percentage points compared to previous seasons. Suarez's pitch selection evolved notably; he leaned heavily on his four-seam fastball, increasing its usage to 71%, while completely phasing out his slider. This adjustment coincided with an uptick in velocity, with his fastball averaging 99.1 mph, up from 97.7 mph in 2023. However, his strikeout rate dipped to 22.9% from 31.9% in 2022, and his 8.17 K/9 was below the league average for closers. At 34, maintaining elite velocity and effectiveness could be challenging. Nonetheless, Suarez's role as the Padres' closer and his recent performance make him a valuable asset for fantasy teams seeking saves in 2025.
