2022 Fantasy Outlook
Evaluating Lopez requires a look beyond his season-long stats, as his 20 appearances in the majors were split nearly exactly evenly between starting and relieving. As a starter, Lopez posted a strong 15.4 K-BB% though his 4.10 ERA was likely fortunate given that he surrendered 1.7 HR/9. However, Lopez really made his mark as a reliever. In 20.1 innings of work, Lopez predictably saw his K% spike to 30.1, and he surrendered a more respectable 1.3 HR/9. Despite the positives, it's also important to keep Lopez's relative success in perspective. For one, this small run of success comes in the face of a career that has been dominated by struggles to this point. Lopez's success also came in largely low-leverage roles as he failed to log either or a save or hold. His performance was likely enough to save his future in the majors, though his path to consistent fantasy value is less clear given the strength of the White Sox bullpen and Michael Kopech's likely move to a full-time role in the rotation.

Moves past back issue
Lopez (back) made a pair of relief appearances during the White Sox's series with the Yankees over the weekend, striking out three over two scoreless frames while allowing one hit and walking none.
ANALYSIS
Lopez wasn't available for a few days after suffering from lower-back tightness during his prior relief appearance May 9 against the Guardians, but he looks to be back to full strength heading into the White Sox's eight-game week.

Lopez's 2020 campaign was derailed by a combination of injury and poor performance that led to a brief demotion to the team's alternate site. He ended the season with a 6.49 ERA that was marred by a 12.4% walk rate and 3.1 HR/9. On a positive note, Lopez incorporated both his slider and changeup more heavily. After throwing his fastball at or near a 60% clip through the first four seasons of his career, Lopez's fastball usage dipped to just over 50% in 2020. As a result, he threw three different pitches at a 20 percent or higher clip for the first time in his career. New pitching coach Ethan Katz could help Lopez build on this tweak to improve his results in 2021. A positive trajectory will be necessary for Lopez to remain in the rotation, as Michael Kopech will return in 2021 and the team could look to add to their staff in free agency as well.
