John Schreiber

29-Year-Old PitcherRP
Boston Red Sox
2023 Fantasy Outlook
After beginning his career in the Tigers organization, Schreiber was scooped up by Boston prior to the 2021 season. He spent most of that year in the minors, then failed to break camp with the Red Sox in 2022 despite an impressive spring. The right-hander made his season debut in late April and ripped off 11 straight appearances without allowing an earned run, spanning 12 innings. Schreiber tallied two wins, a save and three holds during that streak to instantly become one of Boston's primary high-leverage anchors. He'd tack on another 19-game scoreless streak before the All Star break and finished the year with a 2.22 ERA, 0.98 WHIP and 74:19 K:BB over 65 innings. To add to that impressive line, he also racked up 22 holds and tied for the team lead with eight saves. After a breakout year in high leverage, Schreiber should once again get plenty of holds while setting up for newcomer Kenley Jansen. Read Past Outlooks

Schreiber struck out two over 1.2 scoreless innings in Saturday's spring game against the Twins.
ANALYSIS
Schreiber made a second consecutive scoreless appearance in which he was asked to face five batters. The right-hander was a key member of the bullpen in 2022 and will repeat that role this season, pitching anywhere in the final three innings of games.
