2024 Fantasy Outlook
In his second MLB season, Faedo showed some signs of progress. After posting a 5.53 ERA and 1.64 WHIP as a rookie in 2022, he lowered those figures to 4.45 and 1.05, respectively. Faedo didn't miss a ton more bats, as his K/9 climbed from 7.38 to just 8.07, but he was able to significantly cut down on the free passes. After posting a 4.19 BB/9 in 2022, the righty lowered that to 2.78. The next step for Faedo is to increase his workload. The 27-year-old has logged a total of just 118.1 innings across his two MLB campaigns. If Faedo can stay in the rotation all year, he could see that number climb upward rapidly, though it's no guarantee he'll stick as a starter. The Tigers should have Matt Manning (foot) and Casey Mize (elbow) rejoining the rotation, and Kenta Maeda also joined the team in the offseason. With the likes of Tarik Skubal and Reese Olson around as well, Faedo may end up on the outside looking in. As a result, his fantasy outlook is a bit murky at this point. Read Past Outlooks
Moved to 60-day IL
The Tigers transferred Faedo (shoulder) from the 15-day injured list to the 60-day IL on Friday.
ANALYSIS
Faedo was placed on the IL on Aug. 25 with a strained right shoulder, and the injury is severe enough to keep him sidelined for the remainder of the season. He's received a platelet-rich plasma injection to address the shoulder strain but is expected to have a normal offseason. In 57.1 innings with the Tigers this season, Faedo logged a 3.61 ERA and a 1.34 WHIP.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2023
2022
2020
2019
Faedo made his MLB debut in 2022 and struggled before going down with a hip injury in July. The righty compiled a 5.53 ERA, 1.64 WHIP and 44 strikeouts across 53.2 innings. He underwent hip surgery after being unable to pitch through the hip ailment, and it's unclear if he'll be ready in time for spring training. Faedo did begin an offseason throwing program in November, so it at least looks like he's making good progress and is on track to return before the 2023 season begins. However, the 27-year-old has now undergone two major surgeries in his career after having the Tommy John procedure in early 2021. That leaves some doubt around how effective he'll be moving forward. Faedo was a first-round pick in 2017, so there is some upside there if he's fully healthy and able to throw without restrictions. Heading into 2023, Faedo should challenge for a rotation spot behind Eduardo Rodriguez and Matt Manning. Spencer Turnbull and Beau Brieske are also in the mix, but with Casey Mize and Tarik Skubal dealing with injuries, there is some opportunity for Faedo.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Might make start next week
The Tigers are considering Faedo for a spot start next week, according to Tim Dierkes of MLB Trade Rumors.
ANALYSIS
Faedo started the second game of Tuesday's doubleheader against the Athletics, but he might be in line to make another start sooner than later. That will ultimately be determined in coming days, though fellow rookie Joey Wentz is also a candidate to make another start at some point next week. Both Wentz and Faedo will remain on the big-league roster until some of the Tigers' regular starters return from injury.
