Andres Munoz a Top-Five Fantasy Closer After Another Dominant Season
Seattle Mariners right-handed closer Andres Munoz has established himself as a high-end closing option for fantasy managers after posting a 1.92 ERA (2.88 FIP), 0.99 WHIP, 60 saves, 160 strikeouts, and 54 walks in 121 2/3 innings for the Mariners in the last two seasons. The 27-year-old Mexican reliever had career highs in ERA (1.73) and saves (38) last year while also striking out 83 batters and posting a strong 1.03 WHIP in 62 1/3 frames. Munoz's 88.4% team save share was second-best among closers in 2025. He's no stranger to injuries, but Munoz has been an All-Star the last two years while staying healthy. His slider is one of the nastiest pitches in the league among relievers. For a Mariners team that should be in contention again in 2026. Munoz has high-end fantasy upside, although walks could be an issue. RotoBaller has him ranked as the No. 4 fantasy closer.
