2025 Fantasy Outlook
Morejon had his best season as a big-leaguer last year, registering a 2.83 ERA, 1.32 WHIP and 71:21 K:BB over 63.2 innings while notching a career-high 12 holds and two saves. While he logged some starts early in his career, all 60 of his 2024 appearances came out of the bullpen. Morejon throws a good upper-90s fastball and recorded a chase rate that ranked in the 81st percentile among big-league pitchers last season, and he limited to opponents to only four homers while inducing a groundball on over half of the balls that were put in play against him. His past as a starter allowed San Diego to use Morejon flexibly, as he got more than three outs on 13 occasions and had two appearances of three-plus frames. Morejon appears to have found his groove as a lefty reliever, and he'll likely open 2025 as a key piece of the Padres' bullpen, though it's not out of the realm of possibility that he could be given another look as a rotation option somewhere down the line.

Move into rotation not ruled out
Padres president of baseball operations A.J. Preller said Tuesday that the organization will have conversations soon about the possibility of moving Morejon into the starting rotation in 2026, 97.3 The Fan reports.
Analysis
Morejon boasts a 2.42 ERA, 1.09 WHIP and 141:38 K:BB over 137.1 regular-season innings as a full-time reliever since the start of the 2024 campaign. He was often used as a starting pitcher earlier in his career, though, and the Padres could have a clear need in the rotation next season if Dylan Cease and Michael King depart in free agency. San Diego is also mulling shifting Mason Miller into the rotation.

2016
Morejon has been plagued by injuries throughout his young career and 2023 was no different. The 24-year-old southpaw suffered a left elbow sprain during spring training that sidelined him until late-May. He was activated in June, then immediately optioned to the minors where he struggled with his control. Morejon was summoned back to the majors later that month and made eight appearances before a knee strain kept him out of action for another month. He began rehabbing in the minors towards the end of the campaign, but did not return to the Padres bullpen. Morejon has youth on his side, but his extensive injury history, variety of health issues and limited track record in the majors makes him a risky bet for 2024 fantasy success.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Padres mulling shift to rotation
Padres president of baseball operations A.J. Preller said Tuesday that the organization will discuss whether to keep Morejon in the bullpen or move him into the rotation in 2026, Jeff Sanders of the San Diego Union-Tribune reports.
Analysis
Morejon has excelled as a full-time reliever the last two seasons, posting a 2.42 ERA, 1.09 WHIP and 141:38 K:BB over 137.1 regular-season innings. The 26-year-old came up through the minors as a starting pitcher, and eight of his first 16 appearances at the big-league level came in the rotation. With Dylan Cease and Michael King slated for free agency this offseason, Morejon could be given another opportunity to start in 2026 in what will be his walk year.
