Past Fantasy Outlooks

2019
2018
Baez has a good fastball and an even better changeup, but even so there does not appear to be a path to him becoming a major-league starting pitcher. He has struggled with back and shoulder issues throughout the minors, and also lacks a quality breaking pitch for facing big-league hitters. There are certainly pitchers in the big leagues who have made it work with just two pitches, but San Diego took the repertoire concerns along with the durability issues and decided the bullpen would be the best place for him. We've seen just 34 innings out of him at the big-league level the past two seasons, with Baez mainly working in lower-leverage situations in a crowded bullpen. That is unlikely to change in 2021, so expect more of the same for him. If he could find a serviceable third pitch -- a cutter perhaps -- things could get interesting.
