Gregory Soto Fantasy Stats

Pittsburgh Pirates left-hander Gregory Soto picked up his 14th save of the season on Saturday, pitching a scoreless ninth inning with a strikeout in his team's 4-1 win over the Cincinnati Reds. It was a nice bounce-back outing for Soto, who allowed the game-winning run to score after entering the ninth inning with the game tied against Cincinnati on Thursday. Soto had a rough month in June, allowing 11 earned runs in 7 1/3 innings. However, he stabilized himself in July, allowing just two earned runs while notching 11 strikeouts and two saves. Soto's numbers for the year overall remain strong, as he's posted a 27.7% strikeout rate and a 3.69 ERA. Barring an addition to the Pirates' bullpen in the next couple of days before the trade deadline, Soto remains the saves source to target in Pittsburgh.

It's becoming harder to recommend holding Pittsburgh Pirates left-handed reliever Gregory Soto after he took a loss on Thursday against the division-rival Cincinnati Reds. Soto entered a tied ballgame at 2-2 in the ninth inning and allowed the winning run on a hit, two walks, and a strikeout in two-thirds of an inning to lose his third game of the year. Despite the loss, the 31-year-old veteran southpaw did come into his appearance on Thursday in Cincinnati with seven straight scoreless outings, which included two saves with seven strikeouts and two walks. Despite being up and down all year, the Dominican reliever has been Pittsburgh's most consistent source of saves. Soto now sits at 5-3 with a 3.77 ERA (3.76 FIP), a 1.08 WHIP, 13 saves, 52 strikeouts, and 20 walks in 45 1/3 innings out of the bullpen. The leash is going to be short with Soto, and if more struggles follow, Mason Montgomery could begin to see more save opportunities in the Steel City. Soto is currently rostered in only 36% of Yahoo leagues.

Pittsburgh Pirates left-hander Gregory Soto picked up his 13th save of the season on Wednesday, throwing a scoreless 10th inning with a strikeout in his team's 5-3 extra-inning win over the New York Yankees. Soto had a rough month in June, allowing 11 earned runs across 7 1/3 innings. However, the 31-year-old has bounced back in July, pitching to a 1.35 ERA with six strikeouts and two saves across his first 6 2/3 innings this month. The 31-year-old's underlying metrics for the year remain strong, as he's averaging 97.2 miles per hour on his fastball and owns a 27.6% strikeout rate. With his recent rough patch now seemingly in the rearview mirror, Soto once again looks like the closer to roster in Pittsburgh.

Pittsburgh Pirates relief pitcher Gregory Soto entered Monday's game against the Phillies in the bottom of the eighth inning with a three-run lead. He started his outing with a strikeout of Bryce Harper, but then allowed a home run to Brandon Marsh and a single to Bryson Stott, who later came around to score as well. Soto was charged with two runs on two hits in 2/3 of an inning. He did earn his seventh hold of the season, but he has allowed at least one run in five of his last eight games. He has a 14.85 ERA in those eight outings, and his season ERA is up to 4.37. As evidenced by his entry in the eighth inning, he seems to have lost his closer role to Dennis Santana and Mason Montgomery. Montgomery finished the game on Monday night in a non-save situation and seems to be the reliever to own in Pittsburgh at this point in the season.

Across 33 1/3 innings (34 games) in 2026, Pittsburgh Pirates left-hander Gregory Soto has recorded a 4-1 record with a 3.24 ERA, 0.99 WHIP, 39 strikeouts, and 11 saves. The 31-year-old has run into some difficulties in June after a dominant start to the season, allowing six earned runs across 5 2/3 innings (seven appearances) this month. Still, Soto has notched four saves in June and looks to be secure in the ninth-inning role in Pittsburgh. Soto's underlying numbers for the year remain impressive, as he's averaging 97.1 miles per hour on his fastball and has struck out 29.3% of the batters he's faced this season. He also does an excellent job of limiting home runs (0.54 HR/9), which should help him avoid blow-up innings. Even with his shaky performance of late, Soto remains a priority waiver wire target for fantasy managers in any league where he's not already rostered.

Pittsburgh Pirates left-hander Gregory Soto has taken hold of his team's closer role. Across 31 1/3 innings (32 games) in 2026, the 31-year-old has pitched to a 3.16 ERA, 0.96 WHIP, 37 strikeouts, and 11 saves. Soto has run into a bit of a rough patch in June, allowing five earned runs across 3 2/3 innings (five games) this month. However, the veteran has still recorded saves in five out of his last six appearances and does not appear to be in danger of being removed from the ninth inning in Pittsburgh. Soto's underlying metrics support his strong performance so far this season, as he's averaging 97.2 miles per hour on his fastball and has recorded a 29.6% strikeout rate. Given his role in the Pirates bullpen and his production to this point, Soto is a must-add reliever in all fantasy leagues where he's not already rostered.

Pittsburgh Pirates left-handed pitcher Gregory Soto remains a priority waiver-wire target for fantasy managers chasing saves. Soto has emerged as the favorite for ninth-inning work in Pittsburgh and enters Monday with 10 saves, a 3.26 ERA, 0.92 WHIP, and 35 strikeouts over 30 1/3 innings. He has converted three saves in June, including Saturday, June 13's 3-2 win over the Miami Marlins. However, Soto has begun to struggle, allowing five earned runs over 2 2/3 innings this month, including a blown save against the Houston Astros on June 3. Mason Montgomery and Dennis Santana still give Pittsburgh other late-inning options, but Soto has the clearest path to saves given his typical usage. With a 47% Yahoo roster rate, he should be added in most formats where saves are a need, despite his inconsistent start to the month.

Pittsburgh Pirates relief pitcher Gregory Soto got the job done on Wednesday to earn his ninth save, but it wasn't a clean and neat outing. He only needed eight pitches, all strikes, to get through the inning, but he gave up two hits, including a two-run blast by Shohei Ohtani. The 31-year-old lefty is 4-1 in his 30 games this season with a 3.38 ERA and 3.10 FIP, and he has racked up 34 strikeouts in 29 1/3 innings. While he has been effective overall, he has given up five runs in his last two appearances, so he'll need to get things turned around if he wants to maintain his role as the team's top closer. If he continues to struggle, Dennis Santana and Evan Sisk could be more in the mix for saves for the Pirates.

Pittsburgh Pirates left-hander Gregory Soto allowed three runs on three hits and a walk while failing to record an out in Wednesday's 11-9 loss to the Houston Astros. He was charged with the blown save and suffered his first loss of the season. Despite the implosion, the veteran has been one of the more effective relievers in baseball this season and has carved out a meaningful high-leverage role. Soto owns a 2.86 ERA and 0.88 WHIP with 34 strikeouts in 28 innings across 29 appearances. He has already recorded eight saves and has shown the ability to miss bats consistently while limiting hard contact. His stuff has played up in shorter outings, and the Pirates' coaching staff has trusted him in save situations. While the Pirates' bullpen has had some flux, Soto has been one of the more reliable options on the left side and has earned save chances when the team is ahead late. For fantasy managers in need of saves or left-handed relief help, he remains a strong speculative add for saves, as he's rostered in 49% of Yahoo Fantasy leagues.

Pittsburgh Pirates relief pitcher Gregory Soto was called upon a little earlier than usual on Saturday. Soto came into the game in the eighth inning up by one run with two runners on and two outs. He was able to get out of the inning before closing things down in the ninth inning to earn his seventh save of the season. Soto has thrown five straight outings without allowing a hit or run. This season, Soto owns a 1.95 ERA, 0.76 WHIP, and a 32:11 K:BB ratio across 27.2 innings of work. The 31-year-old has established himself as the primary closer in Pittsburgh and should be rostered in most leagues where saves matter.
