2024 Fantasy Outlook
Staumont looked like a promising young reliever at one point, but he holds an ugly 6.09 ERA over his last 57.2 big-league innings dating back to the beginning of 2022 and required surgery this past July for thoracic outlet syndrome. Still, the Twins took a chance on him after he was let go by the Royals. From 2019-21 he held a 2.93 ERA and 124:53 K:BB over 110.2 innings. His last two poor seasons he still had a 10.5 K/9. Walks are his main issue as he had a 6.6 BB/9 the last two seasons. The track record of pitchers coming back from TOS surgery is checkered, at best, but on a one-year pact the Twins felt Staumont was worth a roll of the dice. Read Past Outlooks

Hits IL with calf strain
The Twins placed Staumont on the 15-day injured list Thursday with a left calf strain.
ANALYSIS
Staumont was on track to make the Twins' Opening Day roster, but his bid was derailed when he slipped in the bullpen earlier this week and apparently suffered the calf strain in the process. The transaction is retroactive to Monday, so Staumont will be eligible to return from the IL as soon as April 9.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Trade interest rising
Staumont is the topic of trade conversations before the deadline, reports Mark Feinsand of MLB.com.
ANALYSIS
Staumont and Scott Barlow are both being discussed in trades before Tuesday's deadline. The 28-year-old Staumont has struggled of late, allowing six runs and 11 walks in his last seven innings, but he has a 3.18 ERA and only 13 homers allowed in 141.1 innings in his career. The righty has three more years of team control and is set to enter the arbitration process for the first time after the season.

2017
Staumont got the Royals first two saves of 2022, but he only finished with three all season as control woes and injuries quickly put an end to a promising looking start. While the right-hander's 96 mph fastball was excellent, his secondary offerings were crushed, as opposing batters teed off on his curveball and sinker. After improving his control in 2021, his walk rate jumped 6.3 percentage points last season to 16.5%, which would have been one of the worst rates among relievers if he pitched enough innings to qualify. It doesn't help that his first-pitch strike percentage (54%) keeps trending in the wrong direction. A neck strain and biceps tendinitis required two separate trips to the IL and limited Staumont to just 37.2 innings. There's some upside here, especially if Staumont gets his curve back on track, but are you willing to bet on someone with a career 1.37 WHIP?
