2026 Fantasy Outlook
Soriano can be a frustrating guy for fantasy managers to roster. Between his premium velocity (97.2 mph with his sinker), elite groundball ability (100th percentile) and three secondary pitches with at least a 39.4 percent whiff rate, the ingredients are there for a frontline starter. Soriano has not pitched like a frontline guy, though, at least not consistently. Control issues have held Soriano back, as he had a 10.8 percent walk rate in 2025 and issued at least three free passes in 15 of his 31 starts. He also gives up more hard contact than you'd think a guy with his stuff would, as his hard-hit rate and average exit velocity both ranked in the fourth percentile. There's a non-zero chance Soriano puts it all together and becomes an ace, but to this point he's shown no indication he can do it consistently, and the Angels probably aren't the organization to coax it out of him.

Ready to go after bout with illness
Soriano (illness) will start Monday's Cactus League game against the Giants.
Analysis
Soriano missed his last turn because he was battling an illness, but he's been cleared to return to action after more than a week of rest. The right-hander will be looking to get back on track after being knocked around for seven runs over 3.2 innings in his first two starts this spring.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2025
2024
2021
After breaking into the majors as a reliever, Soriano pitched primarily out of the Angels' rotation last season, making 20 starts in 22 total appearances. He didn't lose anything in terms of velocity, but the strikeout dominance was predictably down as he moved back to a starting role. Arm fatigue put Soriano on the shelf in mid-August and the Angels shut him down for the year shortly thereafter, likely an easy call given where they were in the standings. An MRI in September came back clean, presumably setting him up for a normal offseason. Soriano relied more heavily on his sinker last season, which led to an increase in groundball rate to almost 60 percent. The 26-year-old also has a knuckle curve to get whiffs, so the potential is there for him to add back to his K rate and ascend to legitimate mid-rotation status.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Possible trade piece
Soriano could be traded by the Angels this summer, which Jeff Passan of ESPN.com believes would be a "good baseball decision."
Analysis
Soriano showcased his potential as a rookie last season with a 3.64 ERA and 12.0 K/9 in 38 appearances out of the bullpen, and his transition to the rotation in 2024 has so far been a resounding success. The 25-year-old is averaging 98.3 mph on his fastball -- up from 97.7 mph in 2023 -- and has a 3.86 ERA, 1.22 WHIP and 54:25 K:BB over 58.2 innings this year. He won't be arbitration eligible until 2026, so it will take a significant trade package in order for the Halos to consider parting with the right-hander.
