Rest-of-Season Projections
2022 Fantasy Outlook
Odorizzi was sporting a tidy 3.61 ERA and 0.99 WHIP at the break, but right forearm tightness limited him to just 47.1 innings. Things did not go so well the rest of the way as Odorizzi finished with a 4.71 ERA and 1.47 WHIP in 57.1 second-half frames. He fanned fewer, walked more and yielded more homers after the break. Odorizzi's velocity dropped as the season progressed, perhaps a result of throwing only 13.2 stanzas the previous year. Odorizzi's expected ERAs have been around 4.50 the past five seasons -- that's who he is. He doesn't provide sufficient strikeouts to balance ratio harm. With Justin Verlander returning and a stable of fledgling starters, Odorizzi's grasp of a spot in the Astros' rotation is precarious at best. Read Past Outlooks

Back on mound Tuesday
Odorizzi (lower leg) completed a 25-pitch bullpen session Tuesday, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Odorizzi was back on the mound just eight days after he suffered what looked to be a severe leg injury during his start against the Red Sox. Follow-up tests on Odorizzi's right leg revealed some strains and sprains to ligaments in his foot and ankle, but none are believed to be significant, given that he was already cleared to resume playing catch last weekend. The bullpen session represents another step forward in the recovery process for Odorizzi, who suggested after the workout that he's close to heading out on a minor-league rehab assignment.

Recent RotoWire Articles Featuring Jake Odorizzi

Todd Zola examines the league-wide stolen-base environment and identifies some speedy players who could be valuable as streaming options, including Andres Gimenez.

Dodgers veteran pitcher Clayton Kershaw landed on the injured list with right sacroiliac (SI) joint inflammation, but the team is optimistic he’ll miss the minimal amount of time.

Todd Zola ranks the week's starting pitching as warming weather is contributing to more scoring. Sugar Shane McClanahan only has one start, but still tops the AL rankings.

Wins have been hard to come by this season. Jason Collette examines early run-support numbers and notes pitchers that have enjoyed good fortune in that regard, and those that have not, like Corbin Burnes.

Odorizzi battled multiple injuries last season and made just four starts, allowing 10 earned runs in 13.2 innings. He missed his first scheduled start with a sore back, then went on the injured list after he was hit in the chest by a line drive and then missed time with a blister. It's hard to read too much into four starts, but he did at least maintain his velocity gains of last season (93 mpg average fastball) and showed good control (5% walk rate). He was victimized by four home runs allowed. Odorizzi was coming off the best season of his career in 2019 with 15 wins, a 3.51 ERA and career-best 27.1% strikeout rate. He'd also been durable with six consecutive seasons of 28 or more starts. A high home run rate has been his problem in the past, so as long as he can keep the ball in the park (0.91 HR/9 in 2019), he should return to being a solid starter if he can stay healthy.
