2023 Fantasy Outlook
Lamet had a rough first half, shuttling back and forth between the majors and minors before San Diego ultimately parted ways with him. The right-hander was part of the Josh Hader mega-deal, but was quickly DFA'd by Milwaukee before Colorado swooped in and claimed him. Amidst the turmoil, Lamet surprisingly stayed healthy in 2022. He only compiled 32.1 innings in the majors, but added 18.2 more in the minors for a total of 51 on the season, while pitching exclusively out of the bullpen. Lamet's slider (54% usage) was still successful, generating a 52.3% whiff rate while being responsible for 39 of his 45 strikeouts, but his 4-seamer continues to get crushed (.352 BA, .574 SLG). Perhaps if he ditched his fastball for a sinker, like his Colorado teammate Daniel Bard did last season with great success, he'd take a step forward in fulfilling his potential. Read Past Outlooks

Opts for free agency
Lamet elected free agency Monday.
ANALYSIS
Lamet passed through waivers unclaimed after the Red Sox removed him from their 40-man roster, but he's decided to decline an outright assignment and look for a gig in a new location. The veteran right-hander holds an ugly 11.71 ERA over 17 appearances -- four starts -- at the big-league level in 2023.

2017
Lamet mostly worked in relief last season with nine starts in 22 appearances, and he finished with a 4.40 ERA, 1.49 WHIP and 57:22 K:BB across 47 innings. The right-hander was electric as a starter during 2020 with a 2.09 ERA and 93:20 K:BB in 12 starts, but he then had four stints on the injured list last season with elbow issues. A move to the bullpen could help keep Lamet healthy, and his stuff would play well as a closer. However, the 29-year-old, who rarely worked in relief prior to 2021, would need to get acclimated to regularly pitching out of the bullpen before taking on a high-leverage role, so he's unlikely to be a factor in the late innings until later in the season should the Friars opt to utilize him that way.
