2026 Projections
2026 Fantasy Outlook
Ritchie appears nearly ready to join the big-league rotation in Atlanta, but he'll open the year at Triple-A and await an opportunity. The 22-year-old righty is on the cusp of being a success story as prep righty who underwent Tommy John surgery early in his pro career and went on to have success. Ritchie had the surgery in May 2023 and logged 49.2 strong innings in the lower levels 2024. Last season was his first full year back, and he didn't disappoint, logging a 2.64 ERA, 1.01 WHIP, 140:54 K:BB and 49.6 percent groundball rate in 140 innings across High-A, Double-A and Triple-A. Ritchie's K-BB% gradually ticked down after each promotion, which is understandable. His walk rates ticked up over 10 percent at Double-A and Triple-A, but he still suppressed hard contact while missing bats. Ritchie operates with a very deep arsenal, featuring over a half dozen average or better offerings, but he lacks a true plus pitch. He won't turn 23 until June, however, so there's plenty of time for improvements. As things stand, he looks like a high-floor starter who is ready to contribute in the majors. Read Past Outlooks
Signed a $2.4 million contract with the Braves in July of 2022.
Impressing in Atlanta camp
Ritchie has drawn "some excitement" with how he's looked early on in spring training, Gabe Burns of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.
Analysis
Ritchie is a long shot to break camp as part of Atlanta's rotation, but he could push to make his major-league debut sooner rather than later. The 22-year-old began the 2025 season at High-A Rome and finished it at Triple-A Gwinnett, posting a 2.64 ERA and 140:54 K:BB over 140 innings across three levels. It was his first full pro season, as he missed much of the previous two years while recovering from Tommy John surgery after being the 35th overall pick in the 2022 First-Year Player Draft.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Thriving in minor leagues
Ritchie was a breakout prospect in the Atlanta organization during the 2025 season, according to Jonathan Mayo, Jim Callis and Sam Dykstra of MLB.com.
Analysis
Ritchie underwent Tommy John surgery in 2023 and shook off the rust in 2024, but he showed just how good he can be as a starter in 2025. Ritchie opened the season in High-A but moved all the way to Triple-A, posting a 2.61 ERA and 0.99 WHIP across 25 starts combined across all levels. He was also the starter for the National League in the 2025 Futures Game, and it wouldn't be surprising if he pitches in the majors at some point in the 2026 campaign.
