2025 Fantasy Outlook
At age 34, Iglesias had one of the best seasons of his career, tying a career high with 34 saves while posting career-best marks in ERA (1.95) and WHIP (0.74). His strikeout rate (26.3%) was down compared to prior outputs as he generated fewer whiffs on his changeup and four-seamer, but his five percent walk rate was a top-15 mark among qualified relievers while his .156 batting average against ranked sixth. All four of Iglesias' offerings produced a .179 BAA or better. The veteran closer has been remarkably consistent throughout his 10-year career, constantly delivering ratios in line with his career 2.87 ERA and 1.05 WHIP, but with Iglesias entering his mid-to-late 30s, the downswing of his career may soon be on the horizon. He certainly warrants a selection as a top-10 closer for 2025, but as he enters the final year of his contract with Atlanta, he could become a trade candidate if the team does not perform to expectations.

Takes loss against San Diego
Iglesias (3-4) was tagged with the loss against the Padres on Friday after allowing a solo homer in the ninth inning while striking out one batter. He did not issue a walk.
ANALYSIS
Iglesias was tasked with keeping the game tied at 1-1, but that mission was short-lived after he yielded a solo home run to Manny Machado. It's been a shaky season for Iglesias, who has allowed at least one earned run in five of his last seven outings and has a 5.75 ERA, 1.33 WHIP and 21:4 K:BB across 20.1 innings. Iglesias' recent poor play could force manager Brian Snitker to turn to someone else for closing duties. Pierce Johnson and Dylan Lee are current options out of the bullpen, or Snitker could consider veteran Craig Kimbrel, who is with Triple-A Gwinnett after signing a minor-league deal with Atlanta in March.

Had Iglesias not missed the first month of the season with a right shoulder strain, he may have challenged for the National League lead in saves. He finished with 33 (T-8th in the league), which was still an impressive total given the missed time. The Cuban native also had no trouble stepping right back into closing duties after after pitching in a setup role for Atlanta during the second-half of 2022. Performance-wise, Iglesias was consistent as ever, though his WHIP did suffer with an elevated BABIP. A pitch mix adjustment saw him throw his changeup as his primary for the first time in his career. He increased his usage of the pitch by +11.3%, which makes sense given it's his best offering besides his slider. On the flip side, Iglesias' fastball (.327 BAA) and sinker got crushed (.519 BAA) last season. If that trend continues, it will be interesting to see if the veteran closer scales back on those pitches. Iglesias is a top 5 closer option again for 2024.
