2024 Fantasy Outlook
After securing a spot in the Yankees' Opening Day rotation last spring, Schmidt looked poised for an age-27 breakout. He did in some ways rise to the occasion, logging the highest innings total of any Yankees pitcher not named Gerrit Cole, but his ERA (4.64) and WHIP (1.35) were only mediocre and he made it past the sixth inning just three times in 32 starts. Schmidt has a well-rounded four-pitch arsenal, but none of those offerings have proven to be dominant against major-league competition up to this point. He had zero double-digit strikeout games in 2023. Leaving open the possibility that Schmidt could make some tweaks and achieve another level in 2024, he'll be worthy of late-round consideration in most standard fantasy drafts but probably isn't bankable enough yet for a mid-round reach.
