The left-hander missed the entirety of the 2023 campaign while recovering from shoulder surgery, and he spent most of 2024 at Triple-A Nashville. Ashby started in 14 of his 25 appearances at Triple-A and struggled to an 8.04 ERA, 2.00 WHIP and 92:73 K:BB across 84 innings. He received a look in the majors despite the poor numbers and pitched well with a 2.86 ERA and 33:10 K:BB over 28.1 frames. The control difference between the majors and minors makes all of his numbers difficult to trust, but he should have a chance to earn a spot in Milwaukee's starting rotation in spring training. Ashby still has some upside but carries a lot of risk given the mostly unproven track record. Read Past Outlooks
