Cade Cavalli News
Washington Nationals starting pitcher Cade Cavalli (elbow) is ready to begin a minor-league rehab assignment in the Florida Complex League. Cavalli has been recovering from Tommy John surgery that was performed in March 2023 and has been progressing after throwing multiple bullpen sessions over the past few weeks. Once Cavalli makes his first start, then that will start his 30-day rehab block. Only dynasty managers should be concerned with Cavalli's status as he works to return to the big leagues.
Washington Nationals starting pitcher Cade Cavalli (elbow) threw another bullpen session on Thursday at the team's training facility in West Palm Beach. This was his longest session (45 pitches) since recovering from Tommy John surgery. The Nationals have not changed the original timeline for Cavalli to return in late June or July, but Manager Dave Martinez said that he "threw the ball well again" and that Cavalli is "well on his way." This is an excellent sign for fantasy managers in deeper leagues who may have the 25-year-old stashed on their injured reserve. Cavalli could become worth rostering in standard leagues if he performs well after he returns later in the summer.
Washington Nationals starting pitcher Cade Cavalli (elbow) threw a 60-pitch bullpen session at the team's spring complex in West Palm Beach, Florida on Tuesday, and his velocity reached 96 mph. Cavalli is recovering from last year's Tommy John surgery and isn't expected to be available for the Nats until sometime later this summer, but it's encouraging to hear he's progressing in his throwing program. The 25-year-old former first-round pick is Washington's No. 5 prospect for 2024, per MLB Pipeline, and figures to eventually pick up starts on a rebuilding club and carry some mixed-league fantasy relevance at some point during the second half of the season, but his time may not come until the late stages of the campaign. Dynasty managers should be keeping a closer eye on his status than those in redraft settings.

One of the marquee prospects in the Washington Nationals organization, Cade Cavalli (shoulder), is poised to play a vital role in the Nats rotation over the next couple of years. The 24-year-old made the first step by making his pro debut last season which turned out to be a hitter-friendly start. He then succumbed to shoulder inflammation in late August, which caused him to miss the remainder of the season. Cavalli made 20 starts in Triple-A Rochester and molded a 3.71 ERA, 1.175 WHIP, and 104 punchouts. He also fostered a 26.1% strikeout rate with a 3.80 FIP. As of recent news, Cavalli is ready to roll for the upcoming season and is expected to play some form of role in Washington's rotation. According to Nationals manager Dave Martinez, Cavalli is not guaranteed to make the Opening Day rotation. "There's nothing really set in stone," said Martinez. "Everything's wide open." Although, if he gives in to Steamer and displays a 4.47 FIP and 1.39 WHIP, he'll likely contribute from the bullpen until he builds resiliency. Washinton's top pitching prospect will make little impact with a 559.40 ADP in re-draft formats but is an intriguing asset to have in dynasty leagues.
