2024 Fantasy Outlook
The left-hander struggled to a 5.03 ERA in 29 starts before suffering an oblique strain in mid-September, which ended his season a couple weeks early. Freeland delivered a 2.85 ERA across 202.1 innings in 2018, but that effort is a clear anomaly as he has a 4.96 ERA in the five seasons since. His strikeout rate last season dipped to a career-low 13.9 percent, which went along with a career worst in his average fastball velocity (88.8 mph). Freeland was never a flamethrower, but the velocity drop puts even more pressure on his less-than-reliable command. Even if his fastball gets back into the lower 90s, the 4.33 ERA he had in 2020 and 2021 is likely the best fantasy managers can hope for, especially with hitter-friendly Coors Field still in the mix to bloat his numbers. Combined with the low strikeout numbers, the upside here is limited, at best. Read Past Outlooks
