Camilo Doval Fantasy Stats

The New York Yankees are acquiring relief pitcher Camilo Doval from the San Francisco Giants. The 28-year-old has enjoyed an impressive bounce-back season through the first half of 2025. After struggling through most of 2024, holding a hefty 4.88 ERA and a 1.58 WHIP, the right-hander turned in a strong 3.09 ERA with a 1.20 WHIP through 46 2/3 innings this season. The 28-year-old has tallied 15 saves and struck out 50 batters. While he has struggled with his command (12.6% walk rate), Doval has generated a strong 3.49 xERA, .226 xBA, 6.1% barrel rate, and a 52.2% ground-ball rate, all of which are above the average marks. However, with the Yankees already having Devin Williams on their roster and recently acquiring Pittsburgh right-hander David Bednar, Doval will likely only see time as a setup man, which will significantly decrease his upside in standard leagues. However, Doval should remain a solid option in holds leagues, pitching on a competing Yankees team.

MLB.com's Francys Romero reports that multiple teams are monitoring San Francisco Giants closer Camilo Doval ahead of Thursday's July 31 trade deadline, and he's drawing significant interest. Doval is among the relievers who could be on the move in the next few hours, according to sources. The 28-year-old Dominican reliever hasn't been perfect, but he's having a bounce-back 2025 campaign after a disastrous 2024 season that saw him post a 4.88 ERA in 59 innings pitched. Doval led the big leagues with 39 saves in 2023 and is currently sporting a 3.15 ERA (3.31 FIP), a 1.20 WHIP, 15 saves, 47 strikeouts and 24 walks in 45 2/3 innings pitched. While he has been shaky in the month of July, Doval could be a serious bullpen upgrade for a contending team this week. If Doval is traded, look for Randy Rodriguez to become the Giants' top option for saves.

The San Francisco Giants aren't expected to trade closer Camilo Doval by this Thursday's July 31 trade deadline. However, rival executives think the Giants would be smart to move him. Opportunistic teams could take advantage, and the Giants' bullpen has been such a team strength this year that they could probably afford to lose him. San Fran's bullpen ranks second in ERA (3.23), third in opponents' OPS (.643) and first in WHIP (1.16). The 28-year-old Doval is also under team control through the 2027, which makes him even much more valuable around the league. If Doval were to be dealt this week, All-Star Randy Rodriguez, who has emerged as one of the best relievers in MLB, would almost certainly take over the closing duties for the Gigantes. Doval has incredible arm talent and has bounced back nicely from a disastrous 2024 that saw him sent to the minors.

San Francisco Giants closer Camilo Doval picked up his 14th save of the season in Monday's 3-1 win over the Phillies. Doval entered the game to pitch the top of the ninth inning up by two. He allowed a leadoff walk but got the first out on a lineout and ended the game by inducing a groundball double play. The 28-year-old started the season outside of the closer's role but has regained it and pitched well overall, converting 14 of 18 save opportunities with a 3.10 ERA, a 1.18 WHIP, an 8.62 K/9 rate, and a 4.31 BB/9 rate in 39 2/3 innings of work. His strikeouts have been uncharacteristically down and his high walk rate has been in line with expectations, but Doval should continue to provide fantasy value on a strong Giants team.

San Francisco Giants closer Camilo Doval tallied save No. 13 in a 3-1 win against the Chicago White Sox on Friday. Doval was sharp in his inning of work, retiring the White Sox in order and striking out two over 16 pitches. It was a much-needed rebound after a pair of ugly outings in which Doval combined to allow five earned runs on five hits and two walks in 1 2/3 innings. The 27-year-old still carries a quality 2.70 ERA with a 1.15 WHIP in 36 2/3 frames, but he has succeeded despite a career-low 8.59 K/9.

San Francisco Giants relief pitcher Camilo Doval was handed the ball with a three-run lead versus the Boston Red Sox on Saturday. Doval struggled early as he allowed three straight hits and two runs. He was able to settle down and retire the next three batters to earn his 12th save of the season. Doval has been lights out over the last few months, so fantasy managers shouldn't be alarmed by this outing. He has pitched in three of the last four games, so fantasy managers shouldn't be surprised if he is unavailable on Sunday. Doval holds a 2.06 ERA, 1.09 WHIP, and 33/15 K/BB ratio across 35 innings this season. He should be rostered in most fantasy formats where saves matter.

San Francisco Giants closer Camilo Doval slammed the door on the San Diego Padres on Thursday, tossing a scoreless ninth inning to preserve a 3-2 win. Doval allowed two singles and a hard-hit flyout, but struck out Jake Cronenworth to finish off the Padres. The 27-year-old is coming off a tough outing against these same Padres where he allowed two runs and blew his third save of the season, so it was good to see him bounce back. Doval is now 8-for-11 in save chances this year and has put up a terrific 1.61 ERA and 0.96 WHIP to go along with 25 strikeouts in 28 IP. He has been able to put a tough 2024 behind him and should remain the Giants' closer as long as he keeps getting the job done. Doval should be rostered in all formats.

San Francisco Giants right-handed reliever Camilo Doval will take over as the team's primary closer over right-hander Ryan Walker, according to manager Bob Melvin. Doval hasn't allowed a run in his last 19 appearances while posting a sharp 1.16 ERA, a 0.73 WHIP, five saves, 20 strikeouts and eight walks in his 23 1/3 relief innings in 2025. Last year, the 27-year-old had a career-worst 4.88 ERA and 1.58 WHIP with 23 saves in 59 innings pitched, but the year prior in 2023, he made his first All-Star team and led the league with 39 saves in 69 appearances. Doval has looked much more like the pitcher from 2023 so far in 2025 and will now move forward as San Fran's primary closer. Fantasy managers need to add him immediately off the waiver wire if he's available. Walker has converted his last three save chances but came into Wednesday's game with an ERA over 5.00. He'll still be valuable in holds leagues.

San Francisco Giants relief pitcher Camilo Doval notched his third save of the season on Monday, locking down a 5-2 win over the Milwaukee Brewers. Doval tossed a perfect ninth inning, striking out one while not allowing a baserunner. The 27-year-old is making things interesting in the Giants bullpen, as he has allowed just one baserunner in his last five appearances while closer Ryan Walker just had a disastrous four-run blown save in his last outing. Doval might have a chance to overtake Walker at some point, but for now the Giants are likely to stick with the latter, as he has been solid other than the one poor performance.

San Francisco Giants relief pitcher Camilo Doval earned his second save of the season on Wednesday in Houston. He closed out the Giants' 6-3 win with a perfect ninth inning that required only 10 pitches. The 27-year-old righty has yet to allow a baserunner in his three appearances this season and has two saves, matching Ryan Walker for the team lead. Walker is typically the primary closer but has been unavailable the last two games due to back pain, and Doval has stepped in effectively. When Walker is available, he is expected to resume his role at the back end of the bullpen, but Doval has been very effective and is a strong backup option for the Giants. It looks like he would be the next man up if Walker ends up needing a trip to the injured list. The Giants are off on Thursday before opening a six-game homestand against the Mariners and Reds.
