2024 Fantasy Outlook
Contreras entered 2023 with high expectations, but he fell flat. He got through April with a 3.58 ERA across five starts and 27.2 innings, but his 24:12 K:BB in that span was a warning of what was coming next. Across his next four turns through the rotation, he posted a 5.64 ERA and was quickly shifted to the bullpen before ultimately being demoted to the minors by mid-June. Contreras then struggled with Triple-A Indianapolis, draining all the enthusiasm for him in a fantasy context while also calling his potential role with the team in question moving forward. In order for him to earn a rotation spot and claw his way back to fantasy relevance, Contreras needs to find consistency with his fastball. His slider is dynamic and gets swing and misses, but his fastball was mashed to the tune of .381 average and .598 slugging percentage in 2023. He saw his velocity dip from 95.6 mph to 94.3, which is something to watch in spring training. Read Past Outlooks
Rejoins club Sunday
The Pirates activated Contreras (personal) from the paternity list Sunday.
ANALYSIS
Contreras stepped away from the team for a few days to be with his family, but he's now back with the Pirates. The 24-year-old has shifted to a relief role to begin the season and will likely be utilized in lower-leverage spots.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Bullpen woes continue
A demotion to the minors could soon be in store for Contreras since he's given up 13 earned runs over 12 innings since being moved to the bullpen.
ANALYSIS
The 23-year-old was pulled from Pittsburgh's starting rotation after he surrendered seven runs in one-third of an inning June 7 versus Oakland to bring his ERA to 5.91, but his performance hasn't improved as a reliever. Contreras posted a 3.79 ERA across 95 frames last year and entered 2023 with expectations of being a rotation regular, but he may need to be sent back to the minors to have a chance to straighten things out.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2023
2022
2019
The kid gloves were on with Contreras last season and they will presumably remain on in 2023, at least to the extent that he should be considered unlikely to push much past 150 innings even in a best-case scenario. Keep in mind he will be just 23 years old for the entirety of the 2023 campaign. Contreras fared well in 21 trips to the mound (18 starts) as a rookie, posting a 3.79 ERA in his 95 innings with the big club, though the estimators put him closer to a 4.50 mark. His fastball was rather hittable last season despite good velocity. Contreras can keep hitters off balance with two variations of the breaking ball -- the right-hander's slider in particular was a strong swing-and-miss pitch for him in 2022. He's firmly on the streaming radar.
