2017 Fantasy Outlook
At age 28, Neal is not a prospect, but any pitcher in the A's system with the chance to become a starter is worth a look, considering their pitcher-friendly home environment. The righty's stat sheet doesn't offer up much confidence: He hasn't topped a 7.3 K/9 during a full stop at any level above High-A, and that uninspiring best came at Double-A. On the list of potential Oakland arms to target, he ranks near the bottom, despite the fact he's walked carried a career 1.8 BB/9 in the minors. Neal is a prototypical contact-first pitcher who relies on ballparks like O.co Coliseum and good defenses to yield anything helpful. With the A's, those types of pitchers can do the job for short stretches, but it's hard to bet on him over alternatives with more talent. It'll take an extraordinary amount of dominoes to fall for Neal to contribute in any significant way.
