Wander Suero

Suero graduated from middle relief to a setup role in his sophomore campaign and notched 19 holds while ranking third in the majors with 78 appearances. On the surface, his 4.54 ERA and 1.26 WHIP suggest a step backward from his rookie season. However, the right-hander's 3.06 FIP and improved strikeout numbers reveal moderate growth. Suero continued to rely heavily on his cutter in 2019, throwing it 72.1% of the time. His velocity on the pitch increased by over a full tick last season, resulting in a solid 28.4 K% -- nearly six percentage points higher than the mark he posted with the cutter in 2018. Suero's Achilles heel in 2019 was the big inning; he held opponents scoreless in 59 of his 78 outings but gave up multiple earned runs in 11 of the other 19 appearances. If Suero can improve his consistency and retain a high-leverage role in 2020, he could emerge as a viable option in holds leagues.
