Jose Urquidy was an effective pitcher for the Houston Astros in 2021 despite being hindered by shoulder soreness. Over 107 innings, he produced an 8-3 record with a 3.62 ERA, 4.01 xERA, 0.99 WHIP, 4.14 FIP, and 90 strikeouts.
The 27-year-old is not an elite strikeout pitcher (32nd percentile in K percent), but he has excellent command, as seen by his walk rate (96th percentile) from the previous season.
Utilizing his four-pitch arsenal, led by his excellent changeup, he should limit any self-inflicted harm. Once in his career, the right-handed pitcher has pitched 100 or more innings.
This lack of durability is cause for concern. ATC estimates that Urquidy will finish 2022 with a 9-7 record, 10 quality starts, a 4.25 ERA, a 1.25 WHIP, and 120 strikeouts over 137 innings.
According to Rotoballer’s Expected Draft Values, Urquidy’s ADP of 214 is an almost fair value. Despite his lack of longevity, Urquidy will generate strong ratios and is a solid SP 4/5 in forthcoming fantasy drafts.
