2024 Fantasy Outlook
Aleman posted a strong 36.7 K-BB% and didn't allow a run in 24 innings while notching seven saves at Double-A last season. His fastball reportedly touches 100 mph and sits in the upper-90s and his slider is his go-to offspeed pitch. He's a darkhorse future closer or impact reliever. Read Past Outlooks

Lat
May 9, 2024
Triple-A Columbus placed Aleman on its 7-day injured list Thursday with a right lat strain.
ANALYSIS
The severity of the injury isn't known, but Aleman still appears likely to be sidelined for multiple weeks while he recovers from the lat strain. The 23-year-old right-handed reliever had put himself on the radar for a promotion to Cleveland by striking out 24 while allowing five earned runs on eight hits and seven walks through 13.1 innings out of the Columbus bullpen this season, but the lat injury will put any talk of a potential call-up on hold indefinitely.
