Texas Rangers Phil Maton fantasy baseball waiver wire pickup

Phil Maton is considered a new closer option for the Texas Rangers and a fantasy baseball waiver wire pickup. His velocity has improved this year, with his fastball back up to 90.6 mph and his curveball throwing harder than in 2021. Maton's current 30.4% strikeout rate is a significant improvement, making him a strong contender for save chances despite potential competition from Robert Garcia and Chris Martin.
