2024 Fantasy Outlook
Pitching for his 5th team over the last four seasons, Payamps unexpectedly broke out in 2023. Milwaukee acquired the 29-year-old from Oakland last December and gave him a spot in their Opening Day bullpen. Payamps secured his first career save early in the season and had an impressive 25:4 K:BB ratio over his first 22 innings. By mid-May, he jumped into a setup role that he'd settle into over the remainder of the season. Payamps showcased an improved walk rate (5.9%) and strikeout rate (26.8%) that spiked nearly 10 percent from prior outputs. After recording a career-high 28 holds (T-5th in the league), the right-hander figures to open 2024 in a high-leverage role for the Brewers. However, he's somewhat risky for leagues that count holds, as his ratios could plummet if his slider doesn't hold up. Read Past Outlooks
Pitches eighth inning Thursday
Payamps pitched a scoreless eighth inning of Thursday's 7-5 win over the Pirates, giving up one hit and one walk en route to claiming his third hold of the season.
ANALYSIS
Just one day after notching his fourth save of the season, Payamps moved to a setup role Thursday, with Trevor Megill coming on in the ninth inning to nab his first save. Brewers manager Pat Murphy hasn't clarified that Megill will be the team's top option for save chances moving forward, so Payamps could end finding himself as part of a committee at closer with Megill and perhaps Abner Uribe.
