Past Fantasy Outlooks
2025
2024
2023
2022
2021
Alcala had a bounceback year after two injury-plagued seasons. He threw just 17.1 innings in 2023 with an ugly 6.23 ERA and missed more than four months with a stress fracture in his right forearm. He threw just 2.1 innings in 2022 due to an elbow injury that required season-ending arthroscopic debridement surgery. Alcala has outstanding velocity with a 97.9 average mph fastball, reaching a career-high 101.2 mph last summer. His strikeout rates haven't been as overpowering (8.95 K/9 last season) as he's struggled to get hitters to chase (just 19th percentile Chase% per Baseball Savant), but he limits hard hits (91st percentile Hard-Hit rate per Baseball Savant). When he's struggled it's usually due to his control, but Alcala reduced his walk rate last season (3.1 BB/9) from his previous two years. He should be in the setup mix again this season if he can stay healthy and could be a good source of holds.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Available to sign with another team
Alcala has triggered an assignment clause in his minor-league deal with the Blue Jays, making him available to all 29 other teams, according to Ari Alexander of 7 News Boston.
Analysis
Alcala signed a minor-league deal with the Jays in the offseason, but the 30-year-old didn't have good results in spring training, allowing seven runs on 12 hits and three walks while fanning six across 7.1 innings. The 30-year-old didn't break camp with the club, and this clause, which seems to be an upward mobility clause, will allow him to sign with another MLB club as long as another team expresses interest in signing him.
