2025 Fantasy Outlook
Eflin's 2024 season failed to live up to his 2023 levels of production, but he was mostly a victim of circumstance. Eflin did hit the IL twice in the season with back and shoulder issues, but both were minimum stays. The larger problem for Eflin was his time with Tampa Bay before he was dealt to Baltimore. Eflin was awarded a win in just five of his 19 starts, as the Rays offense struggled to provide runs, while Eflin struggled to prevent them as well as he did in 2023. The trade to Baltimore saw Eflin win five of his nine starts there, and paints a better picture of what is possible for 2025. Eflin remains one of the stingiest pitchers in baseball at giving up walks, as his walk percentage has remained below 5.0 percent for four consecutive seasons. He continues his kitchen-sink-like approach using six different pitch types against hitters to pepper the strike zone and keep hitters off balance, but the seven percentage-point drop in strikeouts from 2023 to 2024 is concerning, as several of his pitches lost their whiffiness. Perhaps that can be written off to his back and shoulder troubles, but it bears watching moving forward. Camden Yards is likely to remain a pitcher's park, but Baltimore is moving the left-field walls during the offseason after a couple years of having one of the deepest left fields in baseball.
