2022 Fantasy Outlook
Trivino's team-leading 22 saves in 2021 was also a career-high mark. He began the campaign by splitting closer duties with Jake Diekman, but he ultimately took over the role until he struggled in three consecutive outings in late August. Though those problems may have been caused by a back injury, Trivino's potential to serve as a consistent closer is worth calling into question. He lacks the typical swing-and-miss stuff of a closer (10.2 swinging strike rate; 21.6 K% in 2021) and also struggles with free passes (11 BB%). As a result, the primary factor that led to Trivino's success was his ability to induce groundballs at a 48% clip, which in turn helped him surrender only 0.6 HR/9. Given that the Athletics declined Diekman's team option and Sergio Romo also hit free agency, Trivino may begin the season as closer in Oakland. However, he should not be drafted among the elite relievers and fantasy managers should not rely on him for a full season of saves. Read Past Outlooks

Gets first win Saturday
Trivino (1-2) secured the win during a victory over the Angels in the first game of a doubleheader Saturday, getting the final out of the ninth inning on a strikeout.
ANALYSIS
The right-hander actually entered in what was at the time a low-leverage spot, as the Athletics trailed 3-1 with only three outs left to mount a comeback. However, Trivino was rewarded for getting Mike Trout to strike out on four pitches when Oakland came up with three runs in the home half of the frame to emerge with a walk-off win. Trivino has done a good job righting his ship after a rough start to May during which he gave up five runs (four earned) to the Rays over two-thirds of an inning, as he's allowed just one earned run over the three frames covering his subsequent five appearances.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2021
2020
2019
Trivino is one of those relievers with many interesting characteristics, but few results to show for it. He throws in the mid-to-upper 90s with his fastball, can touch 100 with it and matches that up with an effective cutter and curveball. Yet, 2020 saw him earn zero wins, zero saves and even allow a home run to Jeff Mathis. Trivino did significantly improve his strikeout rate despite losing two miles per hour off his fastball, throwing fewer cutters and using more fastballs. There was no new pitch here to credit a strikeout surge to as much as a significant change to his pitch utilization as well as some tweaks to his pitching mechanics (notably he shortened his arm action). He is more effective when attacking righties, but does not have the type of platoon splits that would limit him from high-leverage work should opportunities present themselves in 2021.
