Rest-of-Season Projections
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Knack impressed in his first taste of the majors last season despite bouncing between the big-leagues and minors and being deployed both as a starter and bulk reliever. The right-hander recorded a 3.65 ERA and 1.10 WHIP with a 69:18 K:BB over 69 innings -- numbers good enough to earn him a spot on the Dodgers' postseason roster, which led to one appearance in each of the NLDS, NLCS and World Series. While Knack gave up too many homers (14 over the 69 frames), he was largely able to limit the damage on the long balls by posting a 6.3% walk rate and by allowing opposing hitters to bat just .220 against him. The home runs will likely need to be reduced for Knack to sustain success in the majors, but that's a feasible outcome given that he surrendered half as many homers (seven) in almost exactly the same amount of innings (68) in Triple-A. It's unclear if Knack will start for the Dodgers to open 2025, however. He'll likely be competing during spring training with Tony Gonsolin, Dustin May, Bobby Miller and potentially others for one of the final two spots in Los Angeles' rotation. Read Past Outlooks

Saddled with second loss
Knack (2-2) took the loss in Sunday's contest against the Mets. He yielded three runs (one earned) on four hits and no walks over six innings with five strikeouts.
ANALYSIS
The Los Angeles right-hander secured his first quality start of the season with this 91-pitch performance in Queens. After allowing two unearned runs on a Pete Alonso homer in the opening frame, Knack handcuffed the Mets across the next five innings, allowing just one run on three hits. With this effort, Knack lowered his season ERA from 6.17 to 5.22 across 29.1 innings. The 27-year-old should continue to stick in the Dodgers rotation either as a starter or bulk reliever. He currently lines up for a difficult test in his next appearance, scheduled to be against the Yankees at home next weekend.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2023
2022
Knack had a 2.51 ERA and 99:30 K:BB over 100.1 innings between the Double-A and Triple-A levels last season, prompting the Dodgers to protect him from the Rule 5 Draft by adding him to the 40-man roster. His fastball velocity has fluctuated over the years, but he's settled in the 93-94 mph range. He lacks the upside of the typical Dodgers pitching prospect, but he could still provide fantasy value if he's in that rotation and limiting damage. The 26-year-old missed the final month of the season with an undisclosed injury, but he has a solid chance of making his big-league debut in 2024, especially given Los Angeles' plethora of pitching injuries.

Latest Fantasy Rumors

Opening in rotation
Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said Wednesday that a pitcher will be inserted into the rotation Friday against the Angels, reports Juan Toribio of MLB.com, and Knack should be a candidate to start that contest.
ANALYSIS
The right-hander has pitched well in his first taste of the big leagues this year with a 2.61 ERA, 0.97 WHIP and 16:6 K:BB over 20.2 innings, but he's been stuck at Triple-A Oklahoma City for most of the past month and a half. Even if called up Friday, it may only be a spot start for Knack since the Dodgers have three scheduled days off in the next 12 days.
