2024 Player Outlook

2023 Recap: There's no other way to say it, but Gallen was excellent in 2023. His 17 wins trailed only Spencer Strider last year, and Gallen posted a 3.47 ERA (3.26 FIP), 1.12 WHIP, and 20.4 K-BB%. Gallen was one of just 11 qualified starters to post a 20+ K-BB%, and that immensely valuable over 210 IP, the second most in the MLB last season. He brought back his cutter, and attacked the zone, while continuing to miss enough bats to post a 26 percent strikeout rate, the fifth straight season he's achieved such a feat. 

2024 Outlook: He was a steady presence for fantasy managers all season long, and he has a great offense backing him once again. There's a case to be made about how Gallen comes into 2024 after logging a career high 243.2 IP between the regular season and postseason in 2023, but he seems to be a safe selection as a back end SP1.
