2024 Fantasy Outlook
Jimenez is in line to help set up for closer Raisel Iglesias again in 2024 after recently signing a 3-year, $26 million contract extension with Atlanta. The 28-year-old is coming off an excellent 2023 campaign that saw him compile a career-best 3.04 ERA, 1.15 WHIP and 73:14 K:BB over 56.1 innings. The contact Jimenez allowed was often hit hard (45%) while his average exit velocity allowed (91.1 mph) and barrel percentage (11.4%) both were in the bottom 6% of the league. However, the right-hander continued to miss plenty of bats, as his 30.7% strikeout rate and 32.2% whiff percentage were both in the 88th percentile or higher. Jimenez has closing experience with 20 career saves, but don't expect many chances to arise in 2024 as he's currently 3rd or 4th on Atlanta's depth chart behind Iglesias. Read Past Outlooks
