Fantasy Impact:

Mantiply’s 1.35 ERA with a 3:3 K:BB over 6.2 spring innings puts him in the Diamondbacks’ closer conversation with Ginkel, Martinez, and Puk, per Lovullo’s matchup plan Wednesday. His lefty edge shines. Fantasy managers in deeper leagues or save-spec formats should roster him, banking on his control for early save chances in Arizona until a firm role emerges in 2025.
