Rest-of-Season Projections
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Meyer made his long-awaited return from Tommy John surgery and pitched extremely well to begin last season before the Marlins pumped the brakes. They sent him down to Triple-A and moved him to a 3-to-4 inning regimen, carefully managing his workload. Meyer, the third overall pick in 2020, failed to recapture the same magic later in the year, going 1-5 with a 7.20 ERA and 1.68 WHIP in 40 innings following his return to the majors. Miami regularly turned him loose for 90-plus pitches down the stretch, so perhaps the kid gloves are off. His slider was extremely effective and his velocity was close to pre-surgery levels. Meyer could head back to the minors to begin 2025, but the right-hander will get another extended audition in the rotation soon enough. Read Past Outlooks

Squanders early lead
Meyer allowed six runs (four earned) on seven hits and two walks while failing to record a strikeout over 3.1 innings in a no-decision Tuesday versus the Padres.
ANALYSIS
The Marlins opened the game with a six-run first inning. That's usually enough of a lead to make for smooth sailing, but Meyer proceeded to give it all back, getting scored on in four straight innings before exiting at 74 pitches (44 strikes) in a poor start. He has allowed at least four runs in five of his last six outings, erasing much of his positive start to the season. The right-hander is now at a 4.53 ERA, 1.36 WHIP and 63:19 K:BB over 59.2 innings through 11 starts. His next start is projected to be at home versus the hapless Rockies, which gives him a good opportunity to bounce back.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2023
2022
2021
Meyer's eventual role is to be determined, but he should be a valuable fantasy commodity as long as he stays healthy. The 6-foot righty underwent Tommy John surgery in August of 2022, just a few weeks after making his big-league debut. He is set to be fully healthy this spring and should compete for a spot in the Opening Day rotation. If Meyer were to struggle with a starter's workload over the next year or two, he has the stuff to excel in the ninth inning, and that might even be a preferable long-term outcome for those in roto dynasty leagues. He has excellent movement on his mid-90s fastball and one of the best sliders in pro ball, so it's not hard to envision him being one of the best closers in the game if he went down that path. Meyer also sports a decent third-pitch changeup and good enough command to start, it'll just come down to the workload. Dating back to his time at Minnesota, Meyer's one year logging over 80 innings was in 2021, when he tossed 111 innings in the minors.

Latest Fantasy Rumors

Coming off corrective eye procedure
Meyer underwent LASIK eye surgery during the offseason and will no longer wear glasses/goggles in 2025, reports Christina De Nicola of MLB.com.
ANALYSIS
It shouldn't have a significant impact on Meyer's performance given he was already using the corrective lens, but he'll likely be a bit more comfortable on the mound without the eyewear. More importantly, the right-hander worked on grips for a sinker and sweeper during the winter, which is a notable development for a pitcher that has primarily relied upon his fastball and slider. Meyer is still only 25 years old and should have the chance to live up to his pedigree as a top prospect in 2025.
