In Chicago, Pressly had operated as the Astros closer for four seasons before taking a step back in 2024 for Josh Hader. Now, he’ll get a chance to close games again with the Cubs. The 36-year-old right-hander will need to halt the decline in his strikeout rate he’s seen over the last two seasons to remain effective in the role, otherwise, Porter Hodge has shown he’s capable of stepping in if needed.
Duran got off to a late start last season after suffering a spring oblique injury. Despite a down season on the surface, his skills and underlying numbers remained in line with his career norms. His 3.64 ERA appears to be more the product of some bad luck. The thing holding Duran back isn’t necessarily anything in his control. The Twins are still managed by Rocco Baldelli, who seldom gives all the save chances to one reliever.

Manager Dave Roberts stated Scott would be getting “the bulk” of the team’s save chances. He got the first save opportunity against the Cubs in the two-game Tokyo Series, with Alex Vesia working the ninth inning the following day. Even if Scott isn’t getting every save chance, there should be more than enough to go around to make him well worth his draft season price.

Relievers On The Rise/Stash Candidates
Much of the same can be said for Fairbanks, who saw a sharp decline in his strikeout rate last season. The 31-year-old right-hander has yet to prove he can hold up over a full season. And he may be running out of time to prove himself as a reliable closer in Tampa Bay. Fairbanks has a club option for 2026, his final year of team control, and could be a trade candidate.Advertisement
