Will open Tuesday
Mlodzinski will serve as the Pirates' opening pitcher for Tuesday's game against the Marlins, Andrew Destin of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.
ANALYSIS
Mlodzinksi's longest outing since returning from the injured list Aug. 27 has been two innings, so he'll likely work the opening frame or two before handing the ball to a bulk reliever. Joey Wentz could be a candidate to eat up innings after Mlodzinski's work is done.

2023 Fantasy Outlook
Mlodzinksi was a competitive balance pick for the Bucs in the 2020 draft, after he saw his draft stock spike due to his performance in the Cape Cod League. Unfortunately, he's found it difficult to stay on the mound, as he struggled to rack up innings both while at South Carolina and in his first season in the pros. That changed in 2022, as he threw 105.1 innings with Double-A Altoona while serving as a starter. He likely has the stuff to stick in that role thanks to a solid, albeit not standout, fastball-changeup-slider mix to turn to. His control doesn't grade out well on most scouting scales around the industry, but Mlodzinski managed a passable 9.4 and 8.7 BB% in his two seasons as a pro. Given the lack of impact arms at the big-league level under team control in Pittsburgh, Mlodzinski will likely get the chance to prove he can be a big-league starter and that journey will almost certainly begin with Triple-A Indianapolis in 2023. If he can stay healthy and show some improved control, he could rise quickly within the Pirates' system.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Higher-leverage role in 2025?
According to John Perrotto of Pittsburgh Baseball Now, Mlodzinski could step into a high-leverage role in 2025.
ANALYSIS
The right-hander has spent most of the past two seasons in the big leagues and has a 2.91 ERA, 1.22 WHIP and 80:37 K:BB over 86.2 frames in his first 86 appearances. David Bednar pitched his way out of the closer role in 2024, and Aroldis Chapman is headed for free agency, which leaves Pittsburgh with some question marks for the ninth inning heading into the offseason. Even if Mlodzinski doesn't end up in the mix for saves, he should see more high-leverage chances in 2025.
