2024 Projections
2024 Fantasy Outlook
Carrasco pitched for Cleveland between 2009-20 and will return for his second stint with the franchise after three years with the Mets. Carrasco put up a 6.80 ERA and 1.70 WHIP through 90 innings across 20 starts last season with the Mets, and his campaign was cut short in September by a fractured finger. Given the strength of Cleveland's rotation, it's unlikely the 36-year-old lands a starting job, but he could operate as a multi-inning reliever for the big-league club if he turns in a solid spring.

Carrasco's first season with the Mets in 2021 was a disaster as injuries limited him to 12 starts, and he struggled when available with a 6.04 ERA. The right-hander bounced back last season and picked up 15 wins with a 3.97 ERA and 152:41 K:BB across 152 innings (29 starts). He improved both his strikeout (23.6 percent) and walk rates (6.9 percent), and his 46 percent groundball rate was his best since 2018. Carrasco is entering his age-36 season, and his availability can't be guaranteed given his extensive injury history. However, he remains a strong back-end piece for the Mets' rotation after the team exercised his $14 million club option for 2023.
