2024 Fantasy Outlook
Graterol finally avoided the injured list in 2023, pitching a career-high 67.1 innings across 68 games. His age-24 season was the best of his career, as he recorded 4 wins, 7 saves and 19 holds for the Dodgers, alongside elite ratios. Graterol's 1.24 ERA was 2nd-best among qualified relievers, while his 63.8% groundball percentage was 4th. He didn't strike many batters out (18.7%), but he avoided hard contact thanks to a high-velocity sinker that he threw 43.6% of the time. Graterol was dominant in the second half, permitting only one run over 28.1 innings (0.32 ERA) after the All-Star break. He closed out the year on a 24-game scoreless streak that began in late-July. Graterol will have a chance to extend that streak in 2024 as one of the Dodgers' highest-leveraged relievers. Full-time closing duties seem like a longshot, but it's still early in his career and another healthy season may afford him a few more save chances. Read Past Outlooks
Stops throwing program
Graterol (shoulder) has stopped his throwing program due to his arm remaining sore and manager Dave Roberts stated Wednesday, "It's going to be a long program" to get him back, Bill Plunkett of The Orange County Register reports.
ANALYSIS
Graterol threw a bullpen session last week and appeared to be trending well in his recovery, but his rehab program will now be put on pause. The right-hander may now have a difficult time returning from the 60-day injured list when first eligible May 18.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Save chances in 2023?
Graterol could be a part of a closer committee in 2023, opines Juan Toribio of MLB.com.
ANALYSIS
Graterol recorded four saves and produced a 3.26 ERA, 0.99 WHIP and 43:10 K:BB in 49.2 innings in 2022. While he did miss time with elbow and shoulder issues, his 46 appearances were the most of his career. Any closer committee may also include Evan Phillips and Daniel Hudson -- whenever Hudson is fully recovered from his knee injury.

Durability continues to be Graterol's biggest issue with two more trips to the injured list in 2022. First, a right shoulder injury sidelined him for over a month, followed by right elbow inflammation that forced Graterol to miss three more weeks in September. Despite the setbacks, the 24-year-old managed to log career-highs with 46 appearances and 49.2 innings. Graterol's strikeout (21.8%), walk (5.1%) and groundball (63.1%) rates improved and it looked like he was going to take over the Dodgers closer role before getting hurt. The right-hander added a cutter to his arsenal in 2021 and threw the pitch more last year, but his slider and 100-mph sinker continue to be his most effective weapons. Graterol has the upside of a dominant closer and figures to be in the mix for 2023 saves after tallying four last year. However, since we can't yet count on a full season from Graterol, try to temper your expectations.
