Rest-of-Season Projections
Signed a one-year, $3 million contract with the Pirates in January of 2025.
Signs on with Pittsburgh
Ferguson agreed to a one-year, $3 million contract with the Pirates on Thursday, Alex Stumpf of MLB.com reports.
Analysis
Ferguson put up a disappointing 4.64 ERA over 62 appearances in 2024 between the Yankees and Astros but did record 67 strikeouts across 54.1 regular-season innings out of the bullpen. He could end up being the left-handed setup man in Pittsburgh, though Stumpf relays that the Pirates intend to let Ferguson get stretched out over the winter before potentially placing him on a starter's schedule in spring training.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2023
2021
2020
2019
Ferguson returned from Tommy John surgery last May after missing the entire 2021 season. The southpaw was demoted after just one appearance, but returned to the Dodgers a few weeks later and pitched a handful of outings before he experienced left forearm tendinitis. Los Angeles played it cautiously with Ferguson, who returned after a month and extended his scoreless streak to 19 games before finally permitting a run in mid August. He wasn't as sharp from that point forward, recording a 1.88 WHIP and 11 walks over his final 16 innings. Ferguson finished the season with a 12% walk rate, issuing 17 over 34.2 innings, but he only permitted one home run and continued his success against right-handed hitters (.173 BA since 2020). The lefty isn't near the top of the Dodgers' leverage ladder, but it's possible he enters the mix for saves at some point in 2023, especially if he goes on another scoreless streak like last year.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Pirates could listen to offers
The Pirates could be open to trading Ferguson before the summer deadline, according to Jim Bowden of The Athletic.
Analysis
The Pirates could shop several of their relievers before the deadline, and there might be decent interest in Ferguson. The southpaw owns a 3.42 ERA across 29 appearances this season, which would be his lowest ERA over the last three campaigns. It's certainly a step in the right direction after posting a 4.64 ERA in 62 outings for the Yankees and Astros during the 2024 regular season.
