Matt Magill

Magill began the 2019 season in Minnesota, posting a 4.45 ERA in 28 outings before being shipped to Seattle in a mid-season trade. The move was a positive one for the right-hander as he showed significant across-the-board improvement with the Mariners and eventually earned a share of the closer role. Magill has increased the average velocity on his fastball in each of his big-league seasons, hitting a high-mark at 95.2 mph in 2019. That led to the highest strikeout rate of his career (27.9%) but also contributed to plenty of hard contact (40.6 Hard%) and a subpar 1.2 HR/9. Still, Magill's 3.79 FIP and 66.5 LOB% suggest that he pitched better than his final 4.09 ERA indicates, and his effectiveness late in the season -- he converted five of seven save chances and notched a 3.46 ERA after Aug. 17 -- could make him a candidate for more save opportunities in 2020, albeit for a team that lost 94 games last year.
