Reliever projections at the 2025 All Star Break
Jul 20 2025
As we recover from the lull in the schedule (and how about that Home Run Derby?), let's focus only on the rest-of-season projections. As you contemplate trades or moves to help your team to the finish line, saves are often a stand-alone category that can be traded away or traded for. If you need to make a move, who will earn you some value?
We take them in bite-sized pieces, starting with New York Mets closer Edwin Díaz (RHP, NYM), who is projected to earn $19 over the balance of the year in standard mixed 5x5 leagues, and then the four closers after him, each expected to earn $14:
proj | SV | HD | IP | xERA | WHIP | K% | K-BB% | HR/9 | 15$ |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Diaz, Edwin NYM | 14 | 0 | 26 | 2.41 | 0.96 | 40% | 31% | 0.7 | 19 |
| Duran, Jhoan MIN | 14 | 2 | 26 | 2.34 | 1.15 | 31% | 23% | 0.7 | 14 |
| Miller, Mason ATH | 12 | 4 | 26 | 2.71 | 0.96 | 39% | 30% | 1.0 | 14 |
