Victor Vodnik

25-Year-Old PitcherRP
Colorado Rockies
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Vodnik filled a multi-inning, low-leverage role for Colorado early on in 2024. Featuring an upper-90's fastball (63 percent usage), slider (20 percent) and changeup (17 percent), the 25-year-old allowed a 93.1 mph average exit velocity and 49.3 hard-hit percentage that were among the worst marks in the majors. When combined with an 11.6 percent walk rate and below average K-rate (20.3 percent), you wouldn't expect this type of production to come close to the ninth inning. However, Vodnik managed to climb several rungs on Colorado's leverage ladder before he was afforded the opportunity to close for the Rockies last summer. The right-hander tallied nine saves in 15 chances and finished the year with 73.2 innings (T-14 among relievers). Vodnik enters spring training as one of the candidates to close in Colorado, but Tyler Kinley and Seth Halvorsen have more save upside. Read Past Outlooks

Takes loss against Rays
PColorado Rockies
March 28, 2025
Vodnik (0-1) allowed a solo home run over one inning and took the loss Friday against the Rays as the Rockies fell 3-2. He struck out one.
ANALYSIS
Vodnik is a candidate to close games out for the Rockies, but his 2025 debut will do him no favors in winning that role. Outfielder Kameron Misner jumped on the first pitch he saw from Vodnik and sent it over the fence in right for a walk-off winner for the Rays in their first game at Steinbrenner Field. Vodnik had nine saves in 2024 but also blew six save chances.

2024 Fantasy Outlook
Vodnik was acquired from Atlanta in late July for Pierce Johnson and got his first taste of the majors. Vodnik had a 3.35 ERA and 69:31 K:BB in 53.2 innings between Double-A and Triple-A. He has a plus fastball that averaged 97 mph in the majors. He has shown ground ball tendencies, but command issues and less promising secondary offerings could limit his upside. He'll contend for a setup role this spring.
