2024 Fantasy Outlook
Poche continues to excel as Tampa Bay's top lefty setup man when his number is called during the 7th and 8th innings. The 29-year-old led all relievers with 12 wins last season to go along with a team-leading 22 holds and excellent ratios. Poche did so by ditching his curveball and focusing on only two pitches, a low-90's fastball that he threw 65 percent of the time and a slider that batters often chased down in the zone. The southpaw didn't strike many batters out (24.8%), but continued to be among the best in the league at limiting hard contact. His hard-hit percentage was a 93rd percentile ranking or better for the second straight year and this was reflected in his career-best home run rate (0.59 HR/9). Continue to target Poche in leagues that count holds, as he should be one of the Rays top setup men again in 2024. Read Past Outlooks

Earns second save
Poche earned the save in Thursday's 2-1 win over Anaheim, working around a pair of hits while striking out one in the ninth inning.
ANALYSIS
After Pete Fairbanks threw 28 pitches Wednesday, the Rays turned to Poche in the ninth Thursday. The left-hander allowed a pair of base hits but ultimately coaxed a game-ending groundout from Brandon Drury, stranding the tying and go-ahead runs on base. It's the fifth-straight scoreless outing for Poche after he allowed four runs in his first three appearances this year. While Fairbanks and Jason Adam likely remain ahead of Poche in the ninth-inning pecking order, the 30-year-old southpaw could be in the mix for the occasional save going forward depending on matchups.

Poche returned to the majors for the first time since 2019, having missed two seasons while recovering from Tommy John surgery. The southpaw opened the year in the minors, but was called up in late April and was firmly in the high-leverage mix, tallying four wins, seven saves and 23 holds in 65 appearances. Poche posted 94th percentile rankings in hard hit percentage (31%) and exit velocity allowed (86.0 mph) with a low-90's fastball that he threw nearly 78 percent of the time, plus a curveball (22% usage) that he implemented last season. Despite a strong first half (2.35 ERA, 0.98 WHIP), the left-hander tumbled down the stretch (5.79 ERA, 1.36 WHIP) and allowed 11 home runs on the year for a 1.69 HR/9 rate that was 6th-worst among qualified relievers. Poche suffered a strained right oblique at the end of the season, but figures to be healthy in time for spring training. He'll be given an opportunity to compete for one of the Rays' top lefty bullpen roles in 2023.
