2024 Fantasy Outlook
Pagan rebounded in a big way in 2023 with an impressive 2.99 ERA, 0.95 WHIP and 65:21 K:BB over 69.1 innings for Minnesota. The 32-year-old vastly improved his ability to keep the ball inside the park, as his 0.65 HR/9 was the best mark of his career. However, Pagan's home run issues could resurface in his new home park, as the veteran recently joined Cincinnati on a multi-year pact. The right-hander is currently in line for setup duties, but with 32 career saves, he has the experience to occasionally spell closer Alexis Diaz in the ninth inning. Read Past Outlooks
Out with lat strain
Pagan was placed on the 15-day injured list Sunday with a right lat strain.
ANALYSIS
The right-hander returned from the injured list Thursday after he recovered from a triceps injury, but the lat strain will force him back to the injured list. According to Charlie Goldsmith of The Cincinnati Enquirer, Reds manager David Bell said Sunday that Pagan is expected to be out through at least the All-Star break.

Pagan was among the candidates to close for the Padres last spring, but San Diego sent him packing in an Opening Day trade with Minnesota. Taylor Rogers' departure created a void at closer for the Twins, but Rocco Baldelli announced that the newly-acquired Pagan would be part of a committee. Showcasing an improved strikeout rate (12.0 K/9), the veteran ended up recording nine of the Twins' 16 saves through mid-June, but was ousted from closing after a string of blowups later that month. Of course, home runs were still an issue (1.7 HR/9), but Pagan issued more free passes than he ever has (3.7 BB/9) en-route to a career-worst 1.37 WHIP. He has one more year on his contract with Minnesota and is unlikely to be in the team's conversation for saves in 2023.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Receiving interest from Reds
The Reds are among the teams showing interest in Pagan, Jon Heyman of the New York Post reports.
ANALYSIS
Pagan would seem to be a poor fit for Great American Ball Park given his extreme flyball tendencies. The 32-year-old is coming off a terrific 2023 season, though, having collected a 2.99 ERA, 0.95 WHIP and 65:21 K:BB over 69.1 frames. He should be able to land a multi-year pact this winter.
