Kansas City Royals
2024 Fantasy Outlook
Lyles has been one of the most durable starting pitchers as he's averaging 31 starts and 179 innings pitched over the last three seasons. Unfortunately, that's where the plaudits end as he's posted a 5.28 ERA and 1.34 WHIP since 2021, including a 6.28 ERA for the Royals in 31 starts last season. Lyles' 10.0 percent K-BB% was the fifth worst among qualified starters, while his 1.98 HR/9 was the third highest among the group. Even if Lyles pitched to his 5.34 xFIP, he was unrosterable anywhere except the old Hacking Mass format where the goal is assembling the worst roster. Even with the Royals adding a couple of veteran starters, Lyles is slated to help fill out the back end of their rotation. There comes a time in a deep draft and hold league where you just want a guy who will start, and Lyles will be at the top of the available player list. The sage play is drafting the next guy.
