2025 Fantasy Outlook
Tinoco, a 29-year-old journeyman who owns a 3.70 ERA and 1.26 WHIP over 80 career MLB appearances, pitched for four different organizations in 2024. The right-hander was unable to find success with the Rangers, Royals or Cubs, but dominated after the Marlins claimed him off waivers in late-July. Tinoco compiled a remarkable 2.03 ERA, 0.68 WHIP and 30:5 K:BB across 26.2 innings with Miami and quickly moved into a high-leverage role, securing three saves and five holds over the final two months. The Venezuelan native attributed his newfound success to his increased usage of a slider (.097 BAA) that he revamped while pitching overseas in Japan in 2023. If Tinoco continues to throw it as his primary offering (52.3 percent pitch usage in 2024), his chances of opening 2025 as the Marlins' closer may increase. For now, he'll simply try to prove that 2024 was no fluke and compete for a high-leverage role during spring training. Read Past Outlooks

Undergoes UCL surgery
Tinoco underwent UCL reconstruction surgery on his right arm Friday, Alex Krutchik of Fish on First reports.
Analysis
The timeline for Tinoco's recovery is 13-to-14 months, which means the 30-year-old right-hander will miss the entire 2026 season while recovering from his UCL procedure. He's been on the Marlins' injured list since early June and was pulled off his throwing program in mid-August after suffering a setback during his throwing program. He appeared in 20 games out of the bullpen for the Marlins in 2025 and posted a 5.12 ERA, 1.29 WHIP and four saves (on six chances) across 19.1 innings.

2016 Fantasy Outlook
The 6-foot-4 Venezuelan righty was one of the pitchers Colorado received from Toronto in the Troy Tulowitzki deal, and it is easy to see why the Rockies found him attractive. Tinoco posted a 2.97 ERA, 1.27 WHIP, and 105 strikeouts in 121.1 innings as a 20-year-old at Low-A. He has a power sinker that sits in the mid-90s and an slider/changeup combo that should be good enough for him to make it as a starter. In fact, it is a pitch mix that could allow him to be better than average in Coors Field, as he should be able to generate a good number of groundballs. Even if he were forced to move to the bullpen down the road, his sinker could play up in short bursts to the point that he could handle high-leverage situations, so his floor is likely that of a setup man.

Latest Fantasy Rumors

Marlins could listen to offers
The Marlins could listen to offers for Tinoco before the summer trade deadline, Jim Bowden of The Athletic speculates.
Analysis
Tinoco is one of several relief arms who could generate interest before the deadline. However, it's worth noting that the right-hander landed on the 15-day injured list with a forearm strain earlier this month, and if he doesn't recover quickly, then the Marlins might not be able to trade him at all. The six-year veteran owns a 5.12 ERA and 1.29 WHIP across 20 appearances this season.
