2023 Fantasy Outlook
Lambert has completed just 30.1 innings since the start of the 2020 season, with only 5.2 of those frames coming at the major-league level (in 2021). The right-hander underwent Tommy John surgery in July of 2020 which knocked him out through the end of 2021 and last year he was plagued by a forearm issue. Lambert didn't need surgery for the forearm injury and the expectation is that he'll be ready roll for the start of 2023. The Rockies still have hope for a guy who used to be one of their top pitching prospects, but Lambert has been terrible during his major-league career and even at his best has never been much of a bat-misser.

Out with biceps tendinitis
Lambert was placed on the 15-day injured list with right biceps tendinitis Saturday.
ANALYSIS
Lambert technically has time to return before the end of the season, but the timing of the injury makes it quite likely that he's done for the year. If that's the case, he'll end his age-26 season having recorded a 5.36 ERA and 1.39 WHIP across 11 starts and 14 relief appearances. Karl Kauffmann was called up to take his place on the roster.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2020
2016
Lambert made the first 19 starts of his big-league career in 2019 as the Rockies cycled through rotation options, but he failed to find much success, finishing with a 7.25 ERA. Coors Field and a juiced ball may have inflated that number somewhat, but it's still not good enough in any environment, as evidenced by his park-adjusted ERA- of 144. Lambert had never been a particularly high strikeout guy in the minors, but his 13.6% strikeout rate as a rookie was quite poor. The righty has a long way to go to be an effective weapon in the majors, though at age 22 and with a decent amount of prospect pedigree, he could still get there. The Rockies' rotation looks likely to remain weak in 2020, so Lambert could be in line for more opportunities to prove his worth. Given the extent of his struggles as a rookie, though, there's not much reason for fantasy owners to invest until he starts turning the corner.
