2025 Fantasy Outlook
Santos was acquired by Seattle to deepen its bullpen prior to the 2024 season, but a variety of injuries limited Santos to just over seven innings of work on the season. He missed two months with right bicep inflammtion related to a nerve issue and previously missed over three months with a severe lat strain. This all came on the heels of his 2023 season ending early with right elbow inflammation. To be sure, strains and inflammations are the last thing you want to see from a hard throwing reliever, especially one so reliant upon a dastardly slider. The lost time and injury risk has likely led to Santos moving down from the primary setup man or potential closer to someone more likely to work in specific leverage situations against righty-heavy lineups unless something changes with his repertoire and his health. The Seattle bullpen is not exactly set it stone, so anything is possible if Santos's body doesn't let him down once again. Read Past Outlooks

Wraps '24 with scoreless efforts
PSeattle Mariners
September 30, 2024
Santos, who was activated from the injured list last Monday, subsequently made two relief appearances during which he fired two scoreless innings while allowing one hit and recording one strikeout.
ANALYSIS
Santos got back on the bump at the major-league level for the first time since July 31 when he earned his second hold with a scoreless seventh inning in the series opener against the Athletics on Friday. He logged one more frame during Sunday's regular-season finale, getting through the eighth inning on just nine pitches. It was a modest but encouraging season-ending sample for Santos, who didn't make his 2024 debut until July due to a lat strain and then missed nearly two months with a biceps injury. The hard-throwing right-hander played on a one-year deal this season, and it remains to be seen if the Mariners will want to take another look considering Santos logged all of 7.1 innings across eight appearances due to the injuries.

2024 Fantasy Outlook
Santos was designated for assignment by San Francisco last off-season, only to be acquired by the White Sox soon afterwards. Despite having minimal experience at the big-league level, the hard-throwing right-hander made Chicago's opening day bullpen. He spent the first two months working in low leverage, but his solid body of work, good control (5.9% walk rate) and excellent slider (.196 BA, 37.5% whiff rate) earned him higher-leverage opportunities as the season went on. The 24-year-old converted his first save in early July, then stepped into closing duties once Chicago unloaded their veteran relievers at the trade deadline. Santos totaled five saves before right elbow inflammation ended his season in mid-September. He was expected to open 2024 as the White Sox's primary closer but was dealt to Seattle in early February, where he likely won't have much fantasy value in a significantly better bullpen.
