2023 Fantasy Outlook
Urquidy compiled a career-high 164.1 innings as he started 28 games in 29 appearances. His strikeout rate ticked down while his walk rate inched up from the previous year, but it was nothing to warrant concern. As a fly ball pitcher, Urquidy generally sports a low BABIP. Last season's .264 was higher than 2021's .237, but he still benefited from some batted ball luck last season. Urquidy's ERA estimators tabbed his 3.94 mark to be between a quarter and half a run too low. Some may give him the benefit of the doubt and lump Urquidy in with the rest of the Astros talented arms, but he's nowhere near as dominant, thus vulnerable to more variance. Houston has a knack getting the most out of their pitcher's stuff, but Urquidy's spin and velocity isn't as high as his teammates. Put together, Urquidy is a league average pitcher, which is fine. Just don't expect another level typical of Astros' hurler. Read Past Outlooks
