26-Year-Old PitcherRP
Tampa Bay Rays AAA
2025 Fantasy Outlook
If you squint really hard, you can see some shades of Ryan Yarbrough in Lopez. Both pitchers are soft-tossing lefties with unique arm angles relying on extension and guile in their efforts to be successful against opposing batters. Lopez has been able to use that skill rather effectively as a minor leaguer with a 30.6% strikeout rate but has been more hittable as a swingman in two different stints with the Rays over a short 22.2 inning sample size. Lopez has value to the club in a swingman type role or as a bulk pitcher if the rotation is once against impacted with injuries. The rotation is projected to be in tact and deep coming into the season, so Lopez's role will likely need to be out of the pen as he competes against the likes of Cleavinger and Montgomery for a lefty role in the pen.
