2026 Fantasy Outlook

Pagan re-emerged on the high-leverage scene in 2025, recording a career-high 32 saves for Cincinnati. That tied him for fifth in the league overall, while his 78 percent team save share was 6th-highest among closers. Pagan's 0.92 WHIP ranked 15th among qualified relievers and his 30 percent strikeout rate was his highest mark since 2022, though he still had trouble keeping the ball inside the park (1.3 HR/9) due to a 56.7 fly ball percentage was 5th-highest among relievers. Pagan re-signed with Cincinnati and figures to reprise his role as the Reds closer, though his fly ball tendencies aren't the best fit for Great American Ball Park. Not to mention, his inconsistent track record makes him a risky bet for 20-plus saves again in 2026. Read Past Outlooks
