2025 Player Outlook
Greene is primarily a fastball/slider guy, but he did introduce a splitter and curveball last season, albeit used sparingly. I’d like to see him use his splitter more in 2024, as the results last season were solid (.243 BAA, .282 wOBA, 28.4 Whiff%) and it will continue to help him against LHH. His impressive 2024 campaign was basically ended early by elbow soreness, as he pitched just 7 IP (2 GS) after that, but his 2.75 ERA, 1.02 WHIP, and 27.7 percent strikeout rate were highlights from a breakout campaign. There’s some cause for concern coming off a career-high workload and having arm/shoulder issues in two of the last three seasons, as well as the question of just how much better can he get for fantasy purposes? The price point in drafts remains affordable, and he’s in line for double-digit wins this season, while continuing to be elite in the strikeout department. However, expect his ERA to be closer to 3.50 than last year’s 2.75 mark.
