Zach Brzykcy

25-Year-Old PitcherRP
Washington Nationals AAA
2024 Fantasy Outlook
Brzycky did not pitch in 2023 because of a forearm/elbow injury that eventually led to Tommy John surgery, but he is expected to return at some point in 2024. He has an easy plus fastball with good movement that sits in the upper-90s mph. An above-average curveball is his top secondary pitch. If healthy, he could join big-league bullpen this summer.
