Past Fantasy Outlooks
2020
2017
2016
Osich jumped to the American League last season after a largely disappointing four-year run in San Francisco. The move paid some dividends for the southpaw, as he registered his best FIP (4.95) since his rookie campaign. That number isn't impressive, of course, but there were some positives to be drawn, most notably a walk rate (5.5%) that more than halved his best mark over the previous three seasons. Osich also upped his strikeout rate to 22.4% -- his top mark since 2015 -- while tossing the most innings of his career (67.2). Nonetheless, he remains a below-average major-league pitcher who is used primarily in low-leverage situations, doesn't whiff many batters and surrenders gobs of home runs (his 2.0 HR/9 ranked sixth-worst among pitchers who threw at least 50 innings). Osich's improvement is nice to note, but nothing in his profile suggests that he should be part of any fantasy roster.
