2024 Fantasy Outlook
Brito earned a spot on the Yankees' 40-man roster last offeason, protecting him from the Rule 5 draft. The 25-year-old right-hander was reassigned to the minors early in camp, but an injury to Luis Severino opened up a spot in New York's Opening Day rotation that Brito was recalled to fill. The Dominican native impressed in his big-league debut, hurling five shuout frames. He'd go on to compile a respectable 4.28 ERA and 1.22 WHIP over 90.1 innings with nine wins and a save. While Brito's stats didn't jump off the page, he showed promise in a bulk relief role down the stretch. He may resume duties as a starter in 2024 now that he's with San Diego, who is currently thin on rotation arms, but his splits as a reliever (1.43 ERA, 0.85 WHIP) are far better than as a starter (6.32 ERA, 1.48 WHIP).

Works in long relief Saturday
PSan Diego Padres
March 31, 2024
Brito struck out two over 2.1 perfect innings of relief Saturday in the Padres' 9-6 loss to the Giants.
ANALYSIS
Brito's appearance was already his third of the season. He had previously given up two earned runs while recording just one out while taking the loss in the Padres' season opener against the Dodgers on March 20 in South Korea, then was charged with another blown save after yielding two runs and recording one out in San Diego's domestic home opener Thursday versus the Giants. After the Padres returned home from the two-game series in Seoul, South Korea, Brito still looked to be a candidate for the vacant fifth spot in the San Diego rotation, but manager Mike Shildt ultimately elected to go with knuckleballer Matt Waldron for that role. Despite his two rocky appearances to begin the season, Brito's strong showing in long relief of Dylan Cease on Saturday could position him to be next in line for the rotation if the Padres should lose a starting pitcher at some point.
