Michael Soroka Deals in First Start of the Year
Arizona Diamondbacks right-hander Michael Soroka looked really good against the Detroit Tigers on Monday night for his first win of the 2026 season, and he even recorded an immaculate inning along the way in the team's 9-6 win in the desert. Soroka threw five shutout innings, allowing four hits, walking one, and striking out 10 Tigers hitters. There's no telling what Soroka could have done had the D-backs allowed him to keep going, but with the season young, Arizona pulled the 28-year-old at 89 pitches. Fantasy managers in mixed leagues are probably going to want to see more from the Canadian hurler, especially in a hitter-friendly home environment. Soroka was an All-Star in his second year in the majors in 2019 with the Atlanta Braves, but that was his only season in six years where he has gone over the 100-inning mark. The D-backs will likely continue to handle Soroka with care, too, which will limit his fantasy ceiling.
