2025 Player Outlook

Doval lost his closer's job after seeing his walk rate balloon to 14.4 percent. He was better than his 4.88 ERA, as suggested by a 3.44 xERA and .333 BABIP, but it was still a clear step back for Doval. He figures to operate in high leverage situations and is quality insurance for the Giants should Ryan Walker falter in the closer's role.
