2024 Fantasy Outlook
Acquired by the Orioles in the 2022 Jorge Lopez trade, Cano's rookie season was a resounding success. The right-hander didn't break camp with Baltimore, but was recalled in mid-April and didn't allow a hit or walk across his first 9 appearances. Even better, he didn't allow a run until May 19, parlaying his early-season dominance into a high-leverage setup role and All-Star nomination. Cano leveraged his sinker (55.7% usage) to produce a 58.9% groundball percentage, but he didn't strike many batters out (23% K%). However, his 4.6% walk rate was in the 96th percentile, while his ratios were in the top-15 among qualified relievers. Cano tied for the league lead with 31 holds, but also added 8 saves. Those expecting him to take over closing duties for Baltimore in 2024 should note Cano only recorded 4 of the Orioles' 9 saves after Felix Bautista's season-ending injury. He's still likely to receive save chances, but the team may be looking to add a short-term option for closing duties. Read Past Outlooks
Takes loss Saturday
Cano (4-3) allowed two runs (one earned) on two hits and struck out two in one inning, taking the extra-inning loss versus the Tigers on Saturday.
ANALYSIS
Cano faltered in the 10th inning, allowing a run on a single and another on a sacrifice fly. He had not given up multiple runs in any appearance since June 25. The setup man now has a 2.84 ERA, though his 1.26 WHIP and 63:21 K:BB over 57 innings are not as strong. He's also collected five saves, three blown saves and 33 holds across 66 appearances this season.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Sudden dominance
Cano has thrown seven perfect innings for Baltimore this season, with his arsenal catching the attention of Fangraphs' Ben Clemens.
ANALYSIS
Cano recorded an 11.50 ERA across 18 innings last season in his debut campaign, but an offseason with Baltimore has yielded dominant results thus far in 2023. The sample size is small, but Cano appears on track to spell Felix Bautista for the occasional save opportunity if he continues pitching well. He's already worked his way into the high-leverage mix with one save and three holds.
