2023 Fantasy Outlook
Roupp, a 6-foot-2 righty whom the Giants selected in the 12th round in 2021, leaned on his dominant curveball to excel across Single-A, High-A and Double-A. Scouts are split on whether he throws a curveball and a slider, or whether it's just one dominant breaking ball that he can manipulate the shape and velocity of. Regardless, lefties and righties alike couldn't lay off his secondary pitches, and Roupp compiled a 2.31 ERA, 0.97 WHIP, 69:16 K:BB and 56% groundball rate in 50.2 innings over his final 10 starts of the year, split evenly across High-A and Double-A. He was one of the best pitchers in the minors last season when it came to generating weak contact and strikeouts, so while he doesn't have high-end fastball velocity, Roupp's recipe may continue to work at Double-A and Triple-A this season.

Makes 2023 debut
PSan Francisco Giants  AA
May 2, 2023
Roupp (arm) was reinstated from Double-A Richmond's development list and made his season debut April 23, striking out six while tossing three scoreless innings and allowing one hit and one walk.
ANALYSIS
In order to give Roupp more time to build up his arm and complete his throwing progression, the Giants had him stay behind at extended spring training in Arizona rather than joining Richmond for the start of its season in early April. The right-hander was cleared to make his season debut about two weeks later and turned in an impressive outing. The 24-year-old doesn't possess a spot on the Giants' 40-man roster, but he could get the chance to make his MLB debut later this season nonetheless.
