The 2025 season is shaping up to be a pivotal year for the Los Angeles Angels' pitching staff, particularly with José Soriano emerging as a potential breakout star. With his impressive sinker and a curveball that boasts a high CSW rate, could Soriano be the next big thing in fantasy baseball?
Let’s dive into the numbers: Soriano's sinker, clocking in at nearly 98 mph, has shown remarkable effectiveness, especially against right-handed batters. However, his four-seamer has been a point of contention, with a high contact rate that suggests it might be time to retire that pitch from his arsenal. If he can refine his approach and focus on his strengths, could we see him transform into a Valdez-lite type of pitcher?
On the flip side, Tyler Anderson's projections for 2025 suggest a decline in performance. With a projected ERA over 4.40 and a WHIP creeping up, is it time to consider him a risky play in deeper leagues?
Here are some questions to ponder:
- What are your thoughts on Soriano's potential? Is he worth a late-round pick in 15-team leagues, or do you think he’s too much of a gamble?
- How do you feel about the Angels' coaching staff and their ability to develop pitchers? Can they help Soriano reach his full potential?
- For those who have experience with Anderson, do you think he can bounce back, or is he on a downward trajectory?
Let’s hear your bold predictions for the Angels' rotation in 2025! Will Soriano rise to the occasion, or will Anderson surprise us all? Share your insights and let’s get the conversation rolling!
