2025 Fantasy Outlook
All pitchers and catchers rely upon PitchCon to use their signals; Bassitt uses a full keyboard. The righty has yet to come across a pitch classification he does not like as he has thrown eight different pitch types over each of the past two seasons. What he lacks in velocity he makes up for with creativity as he will throw all eight offerings to both righties and lefties to keep them guessing. The problem for Bassitt in 2024 was that hitters were not as disrupted in their timing of his sinker (.327 BA) or changeup (.321 BA) as they were in 2023 when they hit .220 and .189 off those same pitches. Bassitt leaned on his sweeper to hold righties to a .234 batting average with 4 homers on the season, but his cutter was the only member of his octet arsenal which did anything to prevent lefties from doing even more damage than the .305 average and 14 homers inflicted onto Bassitt's stat line. He has made 30 or more starts in each of the lastt three seasons even as his ERA has worsened each of the last five seasons. 2024 was the first time his WHIP was an issue, but it was also the first time since his early years Bassitt was this hittable. He can still volume his way to strikeouts, but his fading fastball is becoming an increasing issue with each passing season. Read Past Outlooks
