2024 Fantasy Outlook
It was a rough go of it for Wentz in 2023. The lefty appeared in 25 games for the Tigers, making 19 starts, and posted a 6.90 ERA. He didn't log enough innings to qualify for the ERA leaderboard, but by comparison, the worst ERA among qualified pitchers was the 6.28 mark posted by Jordan Lyles. Not surprisingly, Wentz's struggles coincided with a 3-13 record, and he served up 25 home runs across his 105.2 innings of work. Detroit had a number of pitching injuries to contend with last year, which opened the door for Wentz, but Casey Mize (elbow) should be back and Kenta Maeda also joined the mix in free agency. As a result, Wentz figures to get squeezed from the rotation. Perhaps the 26-year-old could have more success in a long-relief role, but for fantasy purposes, it's not the most exciting outlook. The best-case scenario for Wentz is that he picks up some spot starts and looks more like the pitcher who recorded a 3.03 ERA across seven starts as a rookie in 2022. Read Past Outlooks
