2024 Projections
2024 Fantasy Outlook
The right-hander made a handful of minor-league appearances last season while working back from the Tommy John surgery he underwent in May of 2022, and the Brewers inked him to a major-league deal for 2024. Ross hasn't pitched in the majors since 2021, when he had a 4.17 ERA, 1.22 WHIP and 109:34 K:BB across 108 innings for Washington. He has a decent chance of cracking Milwaukee's rotation to begin the season and could have some fantasy value if he's able to regain that 2021 form, though he has an inconsistent track record overall and figures to have some workload limitations given his lack of innings over the previous two seasons.

Viewed as starter
Brewers manager Pat Murphy said Friday that he views Ross primarily as a starting pitcher, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
ANALYSIS
He didn't confirm Ross would be in the Brewers' starting rotation for Opening Day, but Murphy's statement does suggest that Ross will be sent to Triple-A Nashville and stay stretched out rather than begin the year in Milwaukee's bullpen should the 30-year-old righty lose out on a big-league rotation job. Ross hasn't pitched in the majors since 2021 and has surrendered five runs across seven innings so far this spring with a 9:6 K:BB.

One consistent theme throughout Ross's professional career has been injuries, and 2021 was no different. Ross had shoulder troubles in his developmental years in the minors, and had Tommy John surgery in 2017. He made it back in 14 months and was once again throwing mid-to-upper 90s, but the statistical results were not as attractive. After opting out of 2020, he pitched effectively in 2021 with a career high in innings as well as a career-best strikeout rate, but his season ended in mid-August with a partial tear in his previously-repaired UCL. It was decided he does not require a second TJS just yet as he and the club are taking the conservative approach, especially with Ross being in the final year before free agency. The theme continues in 2022, as Ross underwent surgery to remove a bone spur from his elbow in early March and will open the season on the 60-day IL, muddling his outlook for the entire campaign.
