2025 Fantasy Outlook
Halvorsen, a seventh-round draft pick by the Rockies in 2023, made his major-league debut last August after compiling a 4.47 ERA and 1.47 WHIP across 44.1 innings between Colorado's Double-A and Triple-A affiliates. The 6-foot-2 right-hander featured a four-pitch mix headlined by a 100 mph fastball that he tossed 37 percent of the time, but it was his splitter (28 percent usage) and slider (16 percent) that produced the most swing-and-miss. Halvorsen pitched well enough in his limited big-league sample (13:2 K:BB over 12.1 frames) to earn save chances over the final few weeks of the season, recording two in three opportunities. The 25-year-old's minor league track record suggest ratios and walks might be an issue, but Halvorsen's raw talent stands out among other relievers in Colorado's bullpen. He's worth gambling on as a closer-in-waiting type for 2025, but his save ceiling is capped due to the team he plays for. Read Past Outlooks
Signed a one-year contract with the Rockies in March of 2025.
Could return in 2025
Rockies interim manager Warren Schaeffer said Monday that Halvorsen has been diagnosed with a mild flexor strain in his right elbow and could be activated from the 15-day injured list prior to the end of the season, Thomas Harding of MLB.com reports.
Analysis
Halvorsen was pulled after just five pitches in his relief appearance in the ninth inning of Saturday's 8-5 win over the Pirates and landed on the IL a day later. The good news for Halvorsen and the Rockies is that the 25-year-old does not have a serious injury that would have necessitated surgery, and if all goes smoothly in his recovery process, he could be back in action at some point in the next few weeks. Halvorsen has collected a 4.99 ERA, 1.56 WHIP and 36:21 K:BB across 39.2 innings this season and has converted on 11 of 14 save attempts. Schaeffer mentioned Victor Vodnik and Juan Mejia as the top candidates to close games for the Rockies while Halvorsen is on the shelf.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Target for Mets?
Halvorsen is listed as a potential trade target for the Mets, according to Jim Bowden of The Athletic.
Analysis
The Mets need to find a way to bolster their bullpen before the July 31 trade deadline since they're likely to be in a tight race with Philadelphia and Atlanta for a playoff berth. On that note, Halvorsen is a player who could boost the team's bullpen dramatically. The right-hander owns a 4.31 ERA across 32 appearances this season.
