2025 Fantasy Outlook
After flashing some encouraging signs as a rookie, the Athletics hoped Medina could harness his control and show more consistency as a sophomore. Those plans were put on hold after he suffered a Grade 2 MCL sprain in his right knee early in spring training. He began the season on the 60-day IL, then mustered only eight starts before being diagnosed with a right elbow sprain, requiring Tommy John surgery. The best-case scenario is for Medina to return late in the season so he can make a couple of appearances to help overcome the stigma of throwing the ball in anger again, especially since he relies on a 96-mph fastball and high-torque slider. With no chance of helping this season, there is no reason to even stash Medina on a fantasy IL. Read Past Outlooks

Moves to 60-day IL
The Athletics placed Medina (elbow) on the 60-day injured list Monday.
ANALYSIS
Medina was moved to the 60-day injured list to free up a spot on the 40-man roster for infielder Luis Urias, who signed a one-year deal with the club. The transaction won't have any affect on Medina's timeline for a return, as the right-hander is likely to miss most or all of the 2025 season after undergoing Tommy John surgery last August.

2020
2018
Featuring a high-octane fastball and wicked slider, Medina enjoyed some nice stretches in 2023 and was a popular streamer at times, but he finished his rookie campaign with a rough 5.42 ERA and 1.51 WHIP across 17 starts and six relief appearances. He had the fourth-worst walk percentage (11.5) of the 127 major-league pitchers who logged more than 100 innings and turned in a 3-10 record for an Athletics team that lost 112 games and probably won't be any better in 2024. This wasn't a case of first-year jitters, either, as Medina also had real trouble finding the strike zone as he made his way through the minors. Maybe he can take a sudden step forward from a command standpoint, but it's not something to count on come draft day. On any other team, he might already be stuck in a permanent bullpen role at age 24.
