2023 Fantasy Outlook
Sandoval was healthy all year but only totaled 148.2 innings as the Angels rolled with a six-man rotation. The team was also cautious with Sandoval specifically, allowing him to throw 100-plus pitches four times in 27 starts. Sandoval is a unique pitcher not just because he throws lefty but because he throws his slider and changeup as his two primary pitches -- at least he did in 2022. The slider held up under heavier usage and the change was a good swing-and-miss pitch for him with a 44.5 Whiff%, according to Statcast. His four-seamer got knocked around to the tune of a .372 average and 14 extra-base hits, so things can go awry when he gets behind in the count and has to throw the fastball over the plate. Throwing so much breaking and offspeed stuff results in a good number of groundballs, and when combined with the strikeouts, Sandoval is an exciting arm for fantasy purposes. That said, don't expect many two-start weeks and don't expect him to approach 200 innings. Read Past Outlooks
