Stat Review
How does Cole Winn compare to other relievers?
This section compares his stats with all relief pitcher seasons from the previous three seasons (minimum 30 innings)*. The bar represents the player's percentile rank. For example, if the bar is halfway across, then the player falls into the 50th percentile for that stat and it would be considered average.

* Exit Velocity, Barrels/BBE %, Balls Hit 95+ MPH %, and Spin Rate are benchmarked against 2019 data (min 30 IP). See here for more exit velocity/barrels stats plus an explanation of current limitations with that data set.

AL FAAB Factor: Fantasy Baseball Waiver Wire Pickups
10 days ago
Injuries create opportunities, and Boston Red Sox top prospect Marcelo Mayer is one of a number of players joining the American League talent pool this week looking to take advantage.
Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2022
2020
Winn, the Rangers' first-round draft pick in 2018, looked like he was on his way following a breakout 2021 season at Double-A Frisco, which included an appearance in the All-Star Futures game and being named the Double-A Central Pitcher of the Year. The path to MLB has since stalled at Triple-A Round Rock, where he's issued a passel of walks (166 in 222.2 IP, 6.7 BB/9) and his HR/FB spiked over the last two seasons. The right-hander was eventually moved to the bullpen in June, but Winn's results didn't improve much. His fastball still lives in the 92-95 mph zone, but whatever action and deception worked at Double-A did not fool Triple-A hitters. The good news is that Winn pitched well in Puerto Rican Winter League, which potentially sets him up to compete for an open No. 5 starter job for Texas. The Rangers need to bide their time until June when Max Scherzer (back) is expected back.
Winn logged a 2.41 ERA, 0.86 WHIP and 107:31 K:BB in 86 innings last season, with 19 starts coming at Double-A and two starts at Triple-A. Texas has one of the easiest rotations to break into in the league, and Winn is easily the Rangers' best pitching prospect with upper-level experience, so his path to playing time is clear. His fastball, changeup and curveball are each plus offerings, so the main thing Winn needs to work on is cutting down on the walks (9.3 BB%). Depending on whether the Rangers add anyone after the lockout, Winn could be one of the team's three our four best starting pitchers in big-league camp. However, he is not on the 40-man roster yet. It's a matter of when, not if, Winn makes his big-league debut this season. He is not so elite that there won't be ups and downs, but he could eventually be a strong No. 2 or No. 3 starter if he stays healthy.
When the Rangers selected Winn with the 15th overall pick in 2018, he was seen as very advanced for a high school pitcher while also having a very high ceiling with a mid-90s fastball and plus curveball already in tow. He did not make his pro debut until 2019, and it's hard to say he lived up to expectations. The 6-foot-2 righty walked too many batters (13.1 BB%) and his strikeouts (21.8 K%) didn't match the scouting report. Over his final 12 starts at Low-A, things got better, as he logged a 2.81 ERA and 1.23 WHIP. Opposing batters struggled to square him up (.615 OPS against) in his final 51.1 frames, but the walks and strikeouts (46:25 K:BB) still left a lot to be desired over that stretch. He has a deep pitch mix and evaluators like his delivery, but after his first pro season, it's fair to say Winn's ceiling is not as high as we thought, nor is he a safe bet to become a mid-rotation starter.
