2025 Fantasy Outlook
Casparius has a pair of monster breaking balls and successfully navigated his first season pitching in the Pacific Coast League. The 25-year-old righty logged a 3.36 ERA, 1.22 WHIP and 72:35 K:BB in 67 innings across 16 appearances for Triple-A Oklahoma City. He has been consistently mediocre from a control standpoint, logging walk rates between 10.5 percent and 12.5 percent in his last eight professional assignments dating back to Single-A in 2021 and including his 8.1 innings in the majors in 2024. While his 95.6 mph fastball has good velocity, it was the one pitch big leaguers were able to handle, logging a .342 wOBA and .396 xwOBA against it. Even so, if just his command or fastball improved slightly, Casparius might be able to ride his slider and curveball to significant strikeout totals working as a big-league starter. The Dodgers helped Casparius get to this point, but their internal depth may also prevent him from getting many big-league starts in 2025. He's a nice trade chip for the Dodgers and a solid sleeper in dynasty and redraft leagues, even though there's still a chance he ends up a high-leverage reliever. Read Past Outlooks
Thriving with three early holds
Casparius notched a hold against the Phillies on Saturday, striking out one batter in two perfect innings.

Casparius has excelled in his role thus far, as he has yet to allow an earned run and has a 7:2 K:BB while surrendering just three hits.
