2026 Projections
2026 Fantasy Outlook
The last we saw of Lauer, he had pitched his way over to the KBO after a terrible 2023 season with Milwaukee. When Milwaukee gives up on a pitcher, it is notable because of their work with their pitching lab and how they seemingly get the most out of every guy they acquire or draft. Lauer pitched in Triple-A for the Pirates and Astros in 2024 with little success, and ended the season pitching in the KBO where he won a World Series. Toronto signed the lefty to a minor league contact and called him up to the team at the end of April where in a swingman role where he found some surprising success. Lauer recored some of the velocity his fastball lost in 2023, and while he threw nothing new, he located what he threw better and got whiff rates of 20% or higher on four of his five offerings while just missing with the other offering at 19%. The changeup has to improve for him to see a rotation again as he allowed 12 of his 15 homers to righties but was otherwise split neutral despite the underperforming offspeed pitch. Lauer should resume a similar role with Toronto in 2026 which limits his usage to deeper AL-Only leagues. Read Past Outlooks
