2024 Fantasy Outlook
Adon has above-average velocity and has often produced groundballs at a high rate. It's a combination which has intrigued the Nationals enough to give the right-hander 25 starts (27 appearances in total) and 121.2 innings over the last three seasons. However, Adon simply has shown no semblance of being a major-league caliber starting pitcher, collecting a 6.66 ERA, 1.71 WHIP and 11.5 percent walk rate over that span. He's also produced just a 4.64 ERA and 1.52 WHIP at Triple-A Rochester over the last two seasons. It's a profile which screams reliever, and that may very well be where Adon winds up in 2024.

Sent to Triple-A
The Nationals optioned Adon to Triple-A Rochester on Wednesday, Andrew Golden of The Washington Post reports.
ANALYSIS
Adon made a spot start Tuesday in San Francisco in place of Josiah Gray's (elbow), allowing one run over four innings. With Adon being sent down, the Nationals will need a starter early next week against the Dodgers.

2023 Fantasy Outlook
Adon was a surprise addition to the Nationals' 2022 Opening Day rotation, but he struggled to a 7.10 ERA and was not seen again at the major-league level after July 7. Dress in layers if you're to visit Adon's Statcast page -- there is a lot of frigid blue, showing bottom-10 percentile ranks in xERA, xBA, xSLG, Barrel%, BB% and Whiff%. Things got better with Triple-A Rochester from a run-prevention standpoint (4.68 ERA), but Adon remained far too generous with the free passes (5.1 BB/9). Mostly a fastball-curveball pitcher last season, Adon brings good velocity with the heater. The Nationals may need him to eat innings in 2023 after he cleared 100 frames between the two levels a season ago. The 24-year-old remains on the 40-man roster as of late December.
