| Jun 18 2025 | Estrada (2-4) took the loss against the Dodgers on Tuesday, allowing five runs on five hits without retiring any batters. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: When Estrada entered in the sixth inning, the game was tied 3-3. The right-hander gave up a single to the first batter he faced and was then tagged for a two-run homer by Will Smith.

He's yielded seven runs over 1.2 innings across his past three outings, pushing his season ERA from 2.08 up to 3.94. |

| Jun 3 2025 | Estrada pitched a perfect inning to earn the save in Tuesday's 3-2 extra-inning win over the Giants. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Top relievers Robert Suarez, Jason Adam and Adrian Morejon had all pitched the previous two days, allowing Estrada a chance to convert his second save of the season. He's earned both of his saves a week apart while also functioning as a setup man when the Padres' bullpen is fresher. Estrada is at a 2.36 ERA, 1.05 WHIP and 40:9 K:BB across 26.2 innings this season, and he's added 11 holds. While he doesn't have much of a chance at steady save opportunities, his high strikeout rate makes him a viable option in some fantasy formats. |

| May 27 2025 | Estrada allowed a hit and struck out two over 1.1 scoreless innings to earn the save in Tuesday's 8-6 win over the Marlins. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: The Padres' bullpen was a little thin, as all of Robert Suarez, Jason Adam and Adrian Morejon had pitched Sunday and Monday. Estrada took care of business in a rare chance to close out a game, earning his first save of the season to go with 10 holds and two blown saves. He's had a bit of a bumpy stretch in May, allowing five runs (three earned) over 6.2 innings across his last eight appearances. Overall, he has a 2.59 ERA, 1.07 WHIP and 37:7 K:BB through 24.1 innings this season, making him a trusted part of the setup crew. |

| May 23 2025 | Estrada (1-3) was charged with the loss and a blown save Thursday against Toronto, allowing two runs (one earned) on two hits and one walk while retiring one batter in the 11th inning. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Estrada didn't get the Padres' first save opportunity of the game -- that went to closer Robert Suarez, who allowed the Blue Jays' automatic runner to score in the bottom of the 10th to tie the game. After San Diego posted a run in the 11th, Estrada came in and gave up a game-tying triple on his second pitch, before Nathan Lukes singled home the winning run for Toronto. Estrada has just one save in his career, but he's been effective in a high-leverage role for the Padres as he ranks second on the team with nine holds while compiling a 2.86 ERA, 1.05 WHIP and 33:6 K:BB over 22 frames on the season. |
