After beating out Hayden Birdsong for a spot in the Giants' 2025 Opening Day rotation, Roupp went on to make 22 starts before a comebacker off his left knee ended his season in August. Roupp had a bit of an elbow scare before that, but he was back throwing bullpen sessions by mid-September, which set him up for a relatively normal offseason. While Roupp's 1.48 WHIP was an eyesore, he was effective in terms of run prevention with a 3.80 ERA over 106.2 innings. His sinker was knocked around, but he held opponents below .200 on both his curveball and changeup. The 27-year-old is not going to overpower anyone with his stuff, and his walk rate is a bit high, but Roupp showed enough to safely project as a member of the starting rotation entering 2026. His streaming case is helped by the fact that his home park in San Francisco is one of the most pitcher-friendly parks in MLB. Read Past Outlooks
