2023 Fantasy Outlook
It took a while, but Manning finally started to tap into his potential at the MLB level a bit in 2022. The righty started the year in the big-league rotation but only made two appearances before shoulder and biceps injuries put him on the shelf until August. By the end of the year, he logged only 63 innings across 12 starts, though he did manage a solid 3.43 ERA and 1.17 WHIP. It's hard to draw too many conclusions from the smaller sample size, but it was a step forward after Manning posted a 5.80 ERA and 1.51 WHIP across 85.1 innings as a rookie in 2021. He's not really missing bats so far, with a career 6.37 K/9, so it remains to be seen just how successful Manning can be in the majors. For now, just staying healthy should be his top goal after dealing with injuries the past few years. Manning will only be 25 when the 2023 season begins, so there is room for some growth if he can stay on the field. Read Past Outlooks

Throws another bullpen session
Manning (foot) threw a bullpen session Friday, Evan Petzold of the Detroit Free Press reports.
ANALYSIS
Manning began throwing off a mound last week for the first time since fracturing his right foot in April and is scheduled to face live hitters next week. He is eligible to return June 12, but given that he will almost certainly need a rehab assignment, a return later in June seems more likely.

Past Fantasy Outlooks

2021
2020
2019
2018
2017
As one of the Tigers' top pitching prospects, Matt Manning debuted in 2021 with a 5.80 ERA, 1.51 WHIP, 14.8% K%, and 8.6% BB% in 85.1 innings. The .305 BABIP looks reasonable, but the 61.9% LOB% should regress over time. It's safe to expect the K-BB% to improve since Manning posted a 29.8% K% and 8.7% BB% in 364 innings throughout the minor leagues. Manning used five different pitches over 11% of the time with a heavy emphasis on the four-seamer (41.4%) and sinker (19.4%). The slider remained the only pitch that elicited a double-digit SwStr% at 10.2%, yet a .379 wOBA. That's not great. Manning dealt with a knee injury in 2021, plus a forearm strain towards the end of the 2020 season. None of Manning's pitches stand out movement-wise, but it's a small sample. Opportunity is available in the Tigers rotation. If Manning improves the LOB% and K-BB%, he'll provide value as a streaming pitcher.
