2024 Player Outlook
2023 Recap: Cortes only made 12 starts in an injury riddled season (hamstring, rotator cuff) and when he was able to pitch, he wasn’t very effective (4.97 ERA). Opposing batters weren’t chasing his pitches outside the zone like they had in the past and they were hitting more home runs against him.
2024 Outlook: Like Rodon, Cortes was an early arrival to the Yankees’ spring training complex in Tampa, FL as he tries to put his lost 2023 season behind him. There is some injury risk in rostering Cortes this season, especially since he’s coming off of an injury to his shoulder but despite his arm issues when he pitched his velocity was intact. If he’s healthy, based on his preseason ADP Cortes could be a late round steal.
