Stat Review
How does Tim Mayza compare to other relievers?
This section compares his stats with all relief pitcher seasons from the previous three seasons (minimum 30 innings)*. The bar represents the player's percentile rank. For example, if the bar is halfway across, then the player falls into the 50th percentile for that stat and it would be considered average.

* Exit Velocity, Barrels/BBE %, Balls Hit 95+ MPH %, and Spin Rate are benchmarked against 2019 data (min 30 IP). See here for more exit velocity/barrels stats plus an explanation of current limitations with that data set.
  • K/BB
    Strikeout to walk ratio.
  • K/9
    Average strikeouts per nine innings.
  • BB/9

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2023
2022
2019
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.
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.
Mayza was up and down between Triple-A and the majors seven times throughout the 2018 campaign, bolstering the Blue Jays' bullpen depth as needed. In the end, the lefty had the second-lowest ERA among Toronto relievers with at least 20 appearances with the team, and the underlying numbers mostly support what he did. Mayza struck batters out at a 26.5% clip and rode a slightly-above-average groundball rate to a 0.76 HR/9. Lefty hitters combined for just a .252 wOBA and 21.4% hard-hit rate against Mayza. His K-BB% against same-handed hitters was 27.4%. Right-handers enjoyed a lot more success against Mayza, though they combined for just a 15.1% line-drive rate. He recorded one lone hold last season, but that number figures to spike in 2019 as Mayza currently projects to open the year as Toronto's top lefty reliever.
