2023 Fantasy Outlook
Mayza reprised a key setup role as one of the Blue Jays' top left-handers, but ended up hitting the IL twice in 2022. First, he missed about a month with left forearm inflammation. Then, about two months after his reinstatement, he dislocated his shoulder. Mayza was able to avoid season-ending surgery and surprisingly returned after a near-minimum IL stint. The southpaw threw mostly sinkers (at an 83% clip), which helped him to a 58% groundball rate for the second straight year. He did permit one of the hardest hit balls of the season - a 118.3 mph single - but that's to be expected when you pitch in the AL East and frequently oppose hitters like Giancarlo Stanton and Aaron Judge. Mayza also tallied eight wins, two saves and 16 holds across 63 appearances, making him a solid target in AL-only formats, or leagues that count holds. Read Past Outlooks
Secures one-out save
Mayza retired the only batter he faced to earn the save in Sunday's 12-11 win over the Angels.
ANALYSIS
Closer Jordan Romano blew his first save of the season Sunday, and Mayza was called upon to close out the 10th inning after Trevor Richards recorded the first two outs of the frame. Mayza now has one hold and one save with a 3.00 ERA through five outings, and he should continue to serve in a high-leverage role for Toronto.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2022
2019
If Mayza were right-handed, he would have a case as a potential closer. He is extremely tough to elevate, tough to barrel up, suppresses overall hard contact and does not hurt himself with walks. He has all the qualities we want in a late-inning reliever, but he is a two-pitch lefty in a Toronto bullpen that has just him and Ryan Borucki throwing from the left side. Still, Mayza has earned his way into late-inning work and grabbed five wins in his role last season. The return of Julian Merryweather and the addition of Yimi Garcia to the picture could in theory cloud Mayza's return to an eighth-inning role, but these skills will not be marginalized into lower-leverage situations. He has some appeal in deeper AL formats as a reserve pick so long as he is in a position to vulture decisions.
