2025 Player Outlook

After a dominant year in the KBO in 2023, Fedde was a solid arm for Chicago and St. Louis in 2024. Sure, his numbers were better with the White Sox than they were with the Cardinals, but outside of a spike in his ERA and reduction in his ground ball rate, he wasn’t all that different on the mound. The strikeout rate from the KBO was never going to translate to the MLB, but he can very easily replicate last year’s 21.2 percent mark this season. He’s locked in the St. Louis rotation and should be in line for 175+ IP yet again in 2024 with a sub-1.30 WHIP. He’s a fine target outside the top 80 starters, especially if your front load your rotation with high strikeout arms.
