2024 Fantasy Outlook
Expectations were high for Lodolo entering his sophomore season, but he ended up making just seven starts before going down with a stress reaction in his left tibia. The southpaw appeared to be on the verge of a return in August, but a second stress reaction in the same tibia took a return off the table. Fortunately for Lodolo and the Reds, offseason surgery is not expected to be necessary. During his brief time on the field, Lodolo's stuff was down across the board. He allowed 10 home runs in 34.1 innings for an unsightly 27.0% HR/FB. Lodolo admitted in spring training that he was having some trouble adjusting to the pitch clock, so that may have played a factor. No matter how you slice it, it was a lost season for the 2019 No. 7 overall pick. He was still able to rack up the strikeouts even with diminished velocity last season (28.3 K%), and Lodolo is just entering his age-26 season. Cincinnati will have him take the ball every fifth day for as long as his body allows. Read Past Outlooks

Fans eight in no-decision
Lodolo allowed four runs on six hits and one walk while striking out eight batters over 6.1 innings in a no-decision against Washington on Saturday.
ANALYSIS
Lodolo carried a 4-3 lead into the seventh frame before exiting with one out and a runner on first base. That runner came around to score after his departure, costing the left-hander a quality start and a chance at a victory. Despite that outcome, there were plenty of positives in the outing for Lodolo -- this was his first time exceeding 4.2 innings across his past four starts, and he had much better control after walking four batters in two of his previous three appearances. Lodolo holds a 3.51 ERA, 1.12 WHIP and 89:25 K:BB over 84.2 innings this season.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2023
2022
2021
2020
The seventh overall pick in 2019, Lodolo is already paying dividends for Cincinnati. He began the 2022 season as the Reds' No. 5 starter but made just three starts before a back issue cropped up that would ultimately sidelined the lefty well beyond the initial estimated timetable. Once finally back, Lodolo pitched like a star in the making, posting a 2.92 ERA, 1.06 WHIP and 21.3 K-BB% in 77 innings after the All-Star break. Lodolo sits around 94 mph with his fastball variations and can break off a nasty curveball to put hitters away. Hunter Greene gets most of the attention in the Reds' rotation, but Lodolo is arguably better equipped for major-league success right now given his secondary pitches and command of his arsenal.

Latest Fantasy Rumors

Has talked extension with CIN
Lodolo has engaged in contract extension talks with the Reds, Charlie Goldsmith of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.
ANALYSIS
Cincinnati signed Hunter Greene to a six-year, $53 million contract extension Tuesday and would surely like to lock up Lodolo to form a pair of long-term co-aces. There's also chatter about Graham Ashcraft being an extension candidate. Lodolo, 25, has pitched to a 3.89 ERA with 162 strikeouts through his first 125 major-league innings since debuting in 2022. He's currently under the Reds' control through 2027.
