Gregory Soto's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

The Philadelphia Phillies linked up with the Baltimore Orioles again for the second time in a week to send more bullpen pieces down the Beltway. Baltimore reunited high-leverage reliever Gregory Soto with his former Philadelphia teammate, Seranthony Dominguez. Soto joins a crowded cast in Baltimore, where it appears he's headed for a middle relief role, bridging the gap between Yennier Cano and Craig Kimbrel. With two saves on three chances and seven holds in 2024, Soto has pitched to a 4.08 ERA and 44 Ks in 35 and 1/3 innings. Baltimore is going to win many games down the stretch, and Soto is definitely someone who should be added to all watch lists, especially given the recent shakiness of Kimbrel, who's blown six saves this year and has a 7.27 ERA in July.

Philadelphia Phillies relief pitcher Gregory Soto earned his first save of the season in Monday's 5-3 extra-innings win over the Cardinals. Soto came in to pitch the bottom of the 10th inning up by two with an automatic runner on second. He got the first out on a fly-out, allowed a single, and ended the game with back-to-back strikeouts. It was the 29-year-old's first save opportunity this season, but he has served as a closer in the past and has yet to allow a run this season with five strikeouts and no walks in 3 2/3 innings pitched. The Phillies have yet to see consistent results from their end-of-game bullpen options, so fantasy managers should keep an eye out to see if Soto finds himself in more high-leverage opportunities.
