Pirates' Gregory Soto: Latches on with Pirates
Gregory Soto signed a one-year, $7.75 million contract with the Pittsburgh Pirates on Tuesday, Jorge Castillo of ESPN.com reports.Soto improved in nearly every major statistical category in 2025, finishing the regular season with a 4.18 ERA and 1.43 WHIP alongside 22 holds and a 70:24 K:BB over 60.1 innings between the Orioles and Mets. He'll receive a $2.4 million raise upon moving to the Pirates and is likely to remain in a high-leverage role; however, the majority of save opportunities will presumably continue going to Dennis Santana.

Orioles' Gregory Soto: Picks up first save
Gregory Soto struck out two in a clean ninth inning to pick up the save during Thursday's 4-3 win over the Guardians.The first save opportunity since Felix Bautista (shoulder) hit the injured list went to Soto, and he delivered an impressive inning, sending the Guardians down in order with the help of a pair of strikeouts. It was his first save on the season in his second chance, as he blew his other opportunity June 24 against the Rangers. The left-hander has a 3.96 ERA and 44 strikeouts in 36.1 innings pitched. Soto should be in the mix for saves however long Bautista is sidelined, though the trade deadline could further shake up Baltimore's high-leverage mix.

Orioles' Gregory Soto: Working as left-handed specialist
Gregory Soto covered a scoreless two-thirds of an inning with no strikeouts in Saturday's 4-3 loss to the Rays.With Baltimore's bullpen essentially at full strength, the Baltimore Orioles have mostly deployed Soto as a left-handed specialist.

Soto has a 3.67 ERA, 1.22 WHIP and 40:15 K:BB to go with 18 holds across 34.1 innings, which at least offers him some appeal in fantasy leagues that count holds.

Orioles' Gregory Soto: Logs another scoreless outing
Gregory Soto picked up a hold Saturday against the Blue Jays after throwing a clean eighth inning, striking out one batter.Soto made quick work of the heart of Toronto's order to preserve a 5-4 lead, retiring Anthony Santander, Andres Gimenez and George Springer on just nine pitches. It was the first hold of the campaign for Soto, who has now hurled six scoreless innings to go with a 9:2 K:BB so far.
