Latest Fantasy Rumors
Displaying growth
Underwood has showcased impressive poise and clutch pitching for Team Puerto Rico in the World Baseball Classic, writes Kevin Gorman of TribLive.
ANALYSIS
Underwood logged three scoreless, late-inning appearances for Team Puerto Rico. He's paired this experience with new maturity. The 28-year-old said, "I've kind of done it all. My job is to go out there and get zeroes. In my younger days, I would get caught up in [my role]. Getting to know myself as a pitcher and as a baseball player, it's about getting zeroes. That's all you want." He could net the occasional save in Pittsburgh, but that's far from a reliable expectation at this stage.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2017
2016
Underwood continues to battle injury problems, most notably elbow ailments. The 22-year-old tossed just 73 innings in 2016 after throwing only 78.1 innings in 2015. The majority of innings for Underwood this past season came at Double-A Tennessee, where he posted a 4.91 ERA and 46:31 K:BB in 58.2 innings. Perhaps not surprising for a pitcher battling elbow issues and unable to stay on the field, Underwood struggled with his command. Those command problems have been prevalent throughout Underwood's professional career, but the lack of time on the mound certainly didn't help his cause. Underwood's stock has taken a bit of a nosedive entering the 2017 campaign, which will likely start at Double-A, assuming he is healthy. Despite being drafted in the second round in 2012, Underwood has never pitched more than 101 innings in a single season in the minors.
