Tony Gonsolin News
The Los Angeles Dodgers announced on Monday that right-hander Tony Gonsolin (elbow) will have Tommy John surgery on Friday. No timetable has been given for his return, but it's now unlikely that he'll pitch at all in 2024. Fantasy managers already knew that Gonsolin wasn't going to pitch again for the Dodgers this year after they moved him to the 60-day injured list, and elbow reconstruction was always a strong possibility. The 29-year-old was a first-time All-Star in 2022, when he went 16-1 with a 2.14 ERA and 0.87 WHIP in 24 starts, but he came back to Earth in 2023, posting a career-worst 4.98 ERA (5.45 FIP), 1.22 WHIP, 40 walks and 82 strikeouts in 103 innings over 20 starts for the Blue.
The Los Angeles Dodgers moved right-hander Tony Gonsolin (forearm) to the 60-day injured list on Sunday and claimed pitcher Tyson Miller off waivers from the New York Mets in a corresponding move. Gonsolin will officially missed the rest of the 2023 season unless the Dodgers make a deep postseason run. Even then, the 29-year-old probably won't make a return and could need surgery on his right arm after undergoing an MRI exam over the weekend. Depending on what kind of surgery Gonsolin might need, most, if not all, of his 2024 season could be compromised as well. It was a tough year for him, going 8-5 with a career-worst 4.98 ERA, 1.22 WHIP and 82 strikeouts in 103 innings over 20 starts for LA.
Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Tony Gonsolin (forearm) had an MRI on his forearm and could require surgery, according to manager Dave Roberts. Roberts also told reporters that the potential surgery could affect Gonsolin's availability for 2024. The Dodgers placed the 29-year-old hurler on the 15-day injured list back on August 19 and stated that he would not pitch again for the rest of the season. This is a bit of a murky situation and it's starting to sound like Gonsolin could miss a portion of 2024. The Dodgers would provide more information again before the regular season comes to a close.

Right-hander Tony Gonsolin had a breakout season for the Los Angeles Dodgers during his first full season in the majors. He won 16 games while posting a 2.14 ERA, 0.87 WHIP, and 23.9% strikeout rate across 24 starts and 130.1 innings. Regression is coming in 2023, though. Gonsolin's .207 BABIP was the lowest of any pitcher with at least 70 innings, and he allowed just 0.76 HR/9 despite an inflated fly ball rate (26.5%) and a home park that's third in home run factor over the past three seasons. However, the 28-year-old will still be a fantasy asset in 2023. Gonsolin has a solid pitch mix; four-seamer (39.1%), splitter (27.5%), slider (21.5%), and curveball (11.9%). His fastball was his worst pitch by run value, but he's declined its usage every season, and his other offerings combined for a 33.3% whiff rate. Gonsolin's plate discipline numbers have been solid through his first four campaigns, including a 61st-percentile whiff rate and 55th-percentile chase rate in 2022. Fantasy managers should expect punchout numbers closer to his 24.8% career rate. Also, Gonsolin allowed just a .220 xBA in 2022, in line with his career mark. Another campaign with an ERA under 4.00 with a useful WHIP won't be difficult, especially considering the All-Star produced a 3.28 FIP and 3.12 xERA this season and owns a career 16.4% K-BB percentage. With Gonsolin's above-average potential in four categories while on a top team in all of baseball, fantasy managers should target Gonsolin at his ADP of 173.
