2024 Fantasy Outlook
Iriarte's stuff clearly belongs in the big leagues, it's just a question of whether he fits best as a starter or reliever. A 6-foot-2 righty with a mid-90s fastball that could touch triple digits and two quality secondary pitches in his slider and changeup, Iriarte logged 90.1 innings last season across High-A and Double-A after logging 91.1 innings in 2022. He threw three or fewer innings in 14 of his 27 appearances, often by design, but in some cases due to poor command. It's possible he will be San Diego's closer of the future, but they'll keep developing him as a starter for another year. He will need to improve on the 13.5 percent walk rate he logged at Double-A, but if he does, he could join the big-league rotation this summer. Read Past Outlooks
Could reach majors in 2024
White Sox general manager Chris Getz said Thursday that Iriarte is a candidate to reach the majors in 2024, Vinnie Duber of AllCHGO.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Acquired from the Padres in the Dylan Cease trade, Iriarte held a 3.49 ERA and 128:45 K:BB across 90.1 innings between the High-A and Double-A levels last season. The 22-year-old is already on the 40-man roster and figures to spend most of the 2024 season at Triple-A Charlotte, but he could push to debut with the Pale Hose later this summer.
