Expert Note
View More NotesDiaz won't record another 57 saves, tied for the second-most ever in a single season. Yet he's the top fantasy closer after cementing a 1.91 ERA with a nasty 124 strikeouts in 73.1 innings. He fixed 2017's walk woes, cutting his walk rate from 11.6 to 6.1%. Those elite numbers are going to cost a bounty on draft day, so investors can't afford much regression if he keeps going around the top 50.

Jon Heyman has reported that the Mariners and Mets deal regarding Edwin Diaz and Robinson Cano has been finalized, they're both headed to New York.
Fantasy Impact
Diaz will keep his closer role for the Mets. He remains one of the best closers in baseball but expect a significantly less amount of save opportunities compared to the 61 he had for Seattle this past season.
