Rest-of-Season Projections
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Hancock was the Mariners' "sixth starter" last season, mostly filling in for Bryan Woo from time to time when Woo's elbow acted up. He wound up making 12 starts and was thoroughly underwhelming with a 4.75 ERA (5.69 FIP) and lowly 14.7 percent strikeout rate. Control is a strong suit for Hancock, but if you're going to be so feeble at missing bats you'd better generate lots of ground balls and/or soft contact and the right-hander does neither of those things. Hancock has the pedigree of a No. 6 overall pick and former top-100 prospect, but he's never really looked like anything more than a potential back-end starter and his performance thus far at the big-league level suggests he might not even reach that level.

Turns in another quality start
Hancock allowed two runs on four hits and two walks while striking out two over six innings in a no-decision versus the Athletics on Tuesday.
ANALYSIS
Hancock has rattled off three straight quality starts, though he has just one win to show for it in that span. He did enough to keep this game close, and the Mariners' offense pulled out a win with a ninth-inning rally. Hancock is now at a 5.70 ERA, 1.56 WHIP and 17:7 K:BB over 23.2 innings over five starts, though the sample is small enough to still be skewed by his poor season debut March 31 versus the Tigers. Hancock should be able to maintain a rotation spot while both of George Kirby (shoulder) and Logan Gilbert (elbow) are on the mend. Hancock's next start is projected to be at home versus the Yankees next week.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2021
Hancock was the sixth pick of the 2020 MLB Draft, and the product of Georgia hasn't shown much consistency in his time as a professional. He was able to reach the majors in 2023, however, and he appeared to have a spot in the Seattle rotation for the remainder of the season until he was diagnosed with a Grade 1-plus shoulder strain in August after making three starts with Seattle. The 24-year-old doesn't have an overpowering fastball, but he commands it well enough to get ahead in counts, and his slider has a chance to be an out-pitch at the highest level. Hancock is not a future ace and he doesn't seem likely to be a part of the Seattle rotation to open the year, but he's a name that's worth keeping an eye on if he does get the chance or he changes organization.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Name dropped in Ohtani rumors
Emerson could be a prospect on the move if Seattle emerges as a suitor for Shohei Ohtani at the deadline, writes Jim Bowden of The Athletic.
ANALYSIS
Hancock was the sixth overall selection in the 2020 Draft and currently resides in Double-A. The 6-foot-4, 24-year-old owns a 4.19 ERA across 41 starts with the affiliate over the past two seasons but carries pedigree and upside that could intrigue the Angels.
