Aaron Ashby News
Milwaukee Brewers left-hander Aaron Ashby's (shoulder) velocity is trending in the right direction after it didn't come along as the team had hoped after his shoulder injury, according to general manager Matt Arnold. Reports on Ashby recently have been very positive, giving hope that he will be ready to go for the start of spring training next year, barring another setback this offseason. The 25-year-old southpaw had left-shoulder surgery in April and wasn't making much progress in his rehab until recently. Ashby didn't pitch at all in the big leagues in 2023 and threw just seven innings during his rehab. If he's fully healthy next year, he should be a candidate to be in Milwaukee's starting rotation in 2024.
Milwaukee Brewers left-hander Aaron Ashby (shoulder) has been out since hurting his left shoulder in the lead-up to spring training. He progressed all summer before hitting a bit of a roadblock in terms of his velocity. But Ashby had a good week of throwing during the team's Aug. 22-27 homestand and was slated to throw an inning on a minor-league rehab assignment with High-A Wisconsin on Sept. 2. Manager Craig Counsell said the plan is for Ashby to pitch for Wisconsin this week and then move to Double-A Biloxi next week. Milwaukee is planning to throw the southpaw in short stings, so he likely won't need many rehab outings before he's an option for the Brewers bullpen later this month and into the postseason.
Milwaukee Brewers right-hander Aaron Ashby (shoulder) will begin a rehab assignment with High-A Wisconsin on Saturday. The 25-year-old has been on the injured list all season after undergoing arthroscopic surgery on his throwing shoulder in April. He owned a 4.44 ERA, 1.43 WHIP, and a 126:46 K: BB across 107 1/3 innings in 2023. The southpaw completed a 35-pitch bullpen session last Saturday and could return off the injured list in mid-September. Ashby is expected to work as a multi-inning reliever once he returns from the injured list and isn't on the fantasy radar for 2023.

You might look at Aaron Ashby's numbers and believe he was a bit of a let-down last year. In 27 appearances (19 starts), Ashby had a 2-10 W-L record, 4.44 ERA, 1.43 WHIP and 126 Ks (107.1 IP) but with a 3.75 xERA, 3.29 xFIP and 3.48 SIERA, it's fair to say he was a bit unlucky. Normally, his profile is one that screams 'sleeper' but Ashby looks set to start the season in the bullpen following the Brewers' signing Wade Miley leaving Ashby as a possible sixth-starter but likely a 'long-reliever'. He was something of a swingman last year and can still provide value out of the bullpen or as a spot starter but with an ADP of ~236 (69th starting pitcher), Ashby will need better results than what he had in 2022 to provide value. Only six of his 19 starts in 2022 saw Ashby complete more than 5.0 IP and he had two IL stints with arm issues so there are question marks about his durability and how much volume we can expect in 2023. But with a 26.5% K% (73rd percentile), 29.4% Whiff% (75th percentile) and 34.1% HardHit% (80th percentile) last year, along with his expected numbers, it's completely understandable why you'd draft Ashby. How much fantasy value Ashby provides in 2023 boils down to volume determined by his role.
