Kyle Bradish News
Baltimore Orioles starting pitcher Kyle Bradish (elbow) is set to make his next rehab start with Triple-A Norfolk on Sunday. The right-hander looked sharp during his most recent rehab outing on Tuesday. The organization has bumped him up to Triple-A, but he'll likely need at least one or two more outings before he's ready to return to the O's rotation. Fantasy managers should continue to hold Bradish and be hopeful for a return in early May.
Baltimore Orioles right-hander Kyle Bradish (elbow) looked good in his first minor-league rehab start with Double-A Bowie on Tuesday, tossing three shutout innings with just one hit allowed, no walks and four strikeouts. It was a very promising first appearance for a pitcher that is trying to avoid needing surgery after being diagnosed with a partially torn UCL in spring training. The 27-year-old is going to need probably a few more starts in the minors before the Orioles feel comfortable activating him from the injured list for his season debut in the big leagues. Fantasy managers in mixed leagues should consider stashing Bradish soon for extra pitching depth after he had a breakout for the O's in 2023. The former fourth-rounder in 2018 by the Los Angeles Angels out of New Mexico State went 12-7 with a 2.83 ERA and 1.04 WHIP with 44 walks and 168 K's in 30 starts a year ago.
Baltimore Orioles right-hander Kyle Bradish (elbow) will make his first minor-league rehab start on Tuesday with Double-A Bowie. Bradish is hoping to go two to three innings or 40 to 50 pitches in his first rehab start this week. The 27-year-old is recovering from a partial tear to his right UCL, so the Orioles are probably going to be pretty cautious with him as he attempts to return to the major-league rotation. There's no guarantee that Bradish will be able to get through all of the 2024 season without suffering a setback that would require season-ending Tommy John surgery, but the hope for now is that he can return to the O's rotation and avoid going under the knife. After his breakout performance in 2023, Bradish deserves to be stashed in an IL spot for now in at least deep-mixed fantasy leagues.

Baltimore Orioles starting pitcher Kyle Bradish came out of nowhere with an outstanding 2023 season, going 12-7 with a 2.83 ERA, 1.04 WHIP, and 25.0% strikeout rate in 30 starts and 168 2/3 innings pitched. He still relied primarily on his excellent slider but swapped four-seam fastball usage for a sinker. Consequently, he allowed hard contact overall but kept the ball out of the air with a 6.6-degree launch angle. He also likely benefitted from both the expanded outfield dimensions at Camden Yards and his team's stellar defense, as he significantly outperformed his 3.76 SIERA. The 27-year-old is currently going at about pick 97 overall, making him the 40th pitcher off the board. The current starters going around Bradish have all shown flashes of upside throughout their career but also have either shown holes in their game, inexperience, or are returning from injuries. A large chunk of pitchers are being drafted within a 15-pick window of Bradish, making it tough to sift through. However, Bradish's strong home park, great offensive and defensive support, and 2023 performance make him a reasonable selection at this point in drafts.
