Hunter Gaddis

26-Year-Old PitcherRP
Cleveland Guardians
2024 Fantasy Outlook
Gaddis appeared in 11 games for Cleveland in 2023, making seven starts and totaling 42 innings pitched. The 25-year-old had middling results with a 4.50 ERA and 1.31 WHIP while striking out only 24 batters. Gaddis has flashed upside throughout his minor league career entering last year with a 12.1 K/9, but those results have yet to transfer to the major league level. Currently, Gaddis is on the outside looking in at a rotation spot with the Guardians and could settle into a long relief role for the team. For fantasy purposes Gaddis is best viewed as a streaming starter at best. Read Past Outlooks

Grabs sixth win
PCleveland Guardians
September 26, 2024
Gaddis (6-3) allowed a run on three hits over one inning to earn the win over the Reds on Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
Gaddis allowed the tying run in the top of the eighth inning, but the Guardians responded with a three-run home run by Jose Ramirez. Gaddis was charged with a blown save, his first since April 30 and his fifth of the year, but he was also able to pick up his second win in a week. The right-hander has been an excellent setup man in his first full major-league campaign, posting a 1.59 ERA, 0.77 WHIP and 65:14 K:BB across 73.2 innings while adding 34 holds.

* Exit Velocity, Barrels/BBE %, Balls Hit 95+ MPH %, and Spin Rate are benchmarked against 2019 data (min 30 IP). See here for more exit velocity/barrels stats plus an explanation of current limitations with that data set.

2023 Fantasy Outlook
Gaddis was able to jump up a couple of levels in 2022. He began the year with a 4.24 ERA and 1.17 WHIP over 76.1 innings at Double-A, but improved his ratios to a 3.60 ERA and 0.93 WHIP across 45 innings with Triple-A Columbus. The improvements didn't continue in his two spot starts in the majors, but there's still some obvious upside for the right-hander entering his age-25 season. He misses a ton of bats, racking up 12.1 K/9 mark in his minor-league career to date, though he also tends to give up loud contact. There's no obvious spot for Gaddis in the Guardians' rotation this spring, though his strikeout stuff could force the issue if he does well during spring training. He'll likely begin the year at Triple-A with the ability to fill in as a spot starter in the big leagues.
