2023 Fantasy Outlook
Fairbanks got off to a late start in 2022 due to a torn lat muscle that he suffered during spring training. The injury required multiple months of rest and rehab, plus a PRP injection, thus delaying his season debut until mid-July. While his first two appearances did not go smoothly, he ripped off 22 consecutive scoreless outings to close out the season. During the streak, he had a remarkable 36:3 K:BB ratio over 22 innings, 0.55 WHIP and a career-high eight saves. Fairbanks has always been among the league leaders in average fastball velocity, but he surprisingly added even more zip on his 4-seamer. He averaged a career-best 99 mph on the pitch, a nearly 2 mph increase from prior seasons. If targeting saves within Tampa Bay's closer committee, Fairbanks clearly has the most upside, but keep in mind he has averaged just 28.5 innings per season for his career. Injuries have been a constant, but the sky is the limit if he can remain healthy throughout 2023. Read Past Outlooks
Two scoreless appearances
Fairbanks has not given up a run in his two Grapefruit League appearances.
ANALYSIS
Fairbanks has allowed just one hit so far in his two games, and he's struck out two while not issuing a walk, although he did put a runner on via a hit-by-pitch. The right-hander signed a three-year extension with the Rays in January after registering a 1.13 ERA and 38:3 K:BB over 24 innings, and he has a chance to see a good share of the save opportunities for Tampa Bay during the 2023 season.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2022
2021
2020
Fairbanks experienced some early stumbles last year following a month-plus stay on the injured list in late summer due to a shoulder injury. However, he finished the season strong with seven consecutive scoreless appearances spanning 6.1 innings during which he allowed six hits and generated a 7:3 K:BB. The 28-year-old had five saves and 14 holds with a 3.59 ERA, 1.43 WHIP and 56:21 K:BB over 42.2 innings last season and was in the mix for save opportunities in 2022. However, he suffered a torn lat muscle in spring training and will miss at least the first two months of the regular season.
