Rest-of-Season Projections
2023 Fantasy Outlook
After making 32 starts the previous season, Eovaldi was limited to 20 outings as he lost time early with back inflammation and then down the stretch with shoulder tightness. His four-seam and cutter velocity dropped, perhaps explaining a 22.4% strikeout rate, the lowest level since 2017. Eovaldi's biggest issue was a return of gopheritis as he yielded 21 homers in only 109.1 innings. His cutter and slider were particularly ineffective as they accounted for 41% of his homers allowed despite being thrown a combined 22% of the time. In contrast, Eovaldi upped his split finger usage to 21% and he surrendered only one homer with the pitch. Other than 2021, Eovaldi has missed at least a quarter of each season, so durability is an issue. His miniscule walk rate keeps his WHIP in a fantasy friendly range but his dalliance with the long ball puts his ERA at risk. Eovaldi joined the Rangers on a two-year, $34 million contract, so he'll see a lot of the AL West and Globe Life Field, which ranks mostly as a neutral park for both hitters and pitchers.

Cruises to eighth win
Eovaldi (8-2) allowed one hit and struck out seven over six scoreless innings to earn the win Sunday over the Mariners.
ANALYSIS
Eovaldi was given plenty of support early on and left with a 12-0 lead after six dominant frames. This was the right-hander's fifth scoreless outing of the season, all of which have come in his last seven starts. He's won six times in that span. Eovaldi is at a 2.24 ERA, 0.93 WHIP and 77:14 K:BB through 80.1 innings over 12 appearances this season, cementing himself as one of the top pitchers in 2023. His next start is projected to be a tough one on the road versus the Rays.

Eovaldi continues to be one of the best success stories among pitchers with multiple Tommy John surgeries under their belt. Eovaldi had the ugly hiccup in 2019, but has otherwise been effective since recovering from his second TJ surgery in 2017. Last season, he shouldered a workload he had not seen since 2014, leading the Boston staff in stability and most performance categories. He now has a polished five-pitch repertoire that keeps hitters guessing, and he needs the wide arsenal as his fastball is still quite hittable as a high-velo, low-spin offering. The biggest concern for the veteran hurler in 2022 is how his body will bounce back from working 203 innings from April through October, given that is nearly equal to his workload from the prior three seasons combined. Last season marked the first time since 2014 Eovaldi avoided the injured list, so that career track record looms large. He's not the workhorse you're looking for.
