The 2023 campaign was Maton's best season to date as the right-hander posted an impressive 3.00 ERA, 1.12 WHIP and 74:25 K:BB over 66 innings with Houston. His standout season earned him a nice raise, as the veteran reliever signed a one-year, $6.25 million deal with Tampa Bay. While Maton is unlikely to see many save chances with the Rays, his impressive strikeout rate should keep him in their high-leverage mix. Maton doesn't throw hard - his fastball averages just 89 mph - but his curveball has been outstanding and even became his primary offering (40.4 percent pitch usage in 2023). The 30-year-old can be prone to the long ball (1.1 HR/9 for his career), but Maton is talented enough to draw consideration as a late round pick in AL-only and 50-round draft-and-hold formats.
