2024 Fantasy Outlook
Staumont looked like a promising young reliever at one point, but he holds an ugly 6.09 ERA over his last 57.2 big-league innings dating back to the beginning of 2022 and required surgery this past July for thoracic outlet syndrome. Still, the Twins took a chance on him after he was let go by the Royals. From 2019-21 he held a 2.93 ERA and 124:53 K:BB over 110.2 innings. His last two poor seasons he still had a 10.5 K/9. Walks are his main issue as he had a 6.6 BB/9 the last two seasons. The track record of pitchers coming back from TOS surgery is checkered, at best, but on a one-year pact the Twins felt Staumont was worth a roll of the dice. Read Past Outlooks
RANKS
Velocity bouncing back
Staumont reached 98 mph with his fastball in his last outing Saturday after only reaching 92-93 mph earlier in the spring, the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports. He's given up two earned runs with four strikeouts and five walks in 4.2 innings this spring.
ANALYSIS
He had an 95.8 average mph fastball last season. Staumont is working his way back after undergoing thoracic outlet syndrome surgery in July. He has a minor-league option left, so he may begin the season in Triple-A as he builds back to full speed. However, he could begin the season in the majors with injuries to Caleb Thielbar (hamstring) and Jhoan Duran (oblique).

2017
Staumont got the Royals first two saves of 2022, but he only finished with three all season as control woes and injuries quickly put an end to a promising looking start. While the right-hander's 96 mph fastball was excellent, his secondary offerings were crushed, as opposing batters teed off on his curveball and sinker. After improving his control in 2021, his walk rate jumped 6.3 percentage points last season to 16.5%, which would have been one of the worst rates among relievers if he pitched enough innings to qualify. It doesn't help that his first-pitch strike percentage (54%) keeps trending in the wrong direction. A neck strain and biceps tendinitis required two separate trips to the IL and limited Staumont to just 37.2 innings. There's some upside here, especially if Staumont gets his curve back on track, but are you willing to bet on someone with a career 1.37 WHIP?
