2024 Fantasy Outlook
Yet another product of the Guardians' pitching factory, Bibee burst onto the prospect radar in 2022 and followed up with a 2.98 ERA, 1.18 WHIP and 141:45 K:BB across 142 innings (25 starts) in his first taste of the majors last season. He began 2023 at Triple-A Columbus but was up with Cleveland by late April, and he was impressive before hip inflammation ended his season in mid-September. A 3.66 xERA and 4.22 xFIP indicate some regression could be on the horizon, especially given he stranded a likely unsustainable 80.0 percent of baserunners (that figure would rank fourth in MLB for qualified starters). Still, the performance of the young right-hander as a rookie can't be overstated, and he should be able to improve his approach in his sophomore campaign. An equal or better effort in 2024 wouldn't be surprising in his age-24 season, especially with the Guardians' track record of building up and maintaining pitching prospects. Read Past Outlooks

Strikes out seven in no-decision
PCleveland Guardians
June 6, 2024
Bibee allowed three runs (two earned) on six hits and a walk over five innings in a no-decision Thursday against the Royals. He struck out seven.
ANALYSIS
Bibee allowed just one unearned run through his first five innings, though he'd be charged with two runs in the sixth after allowing the first two batters to reach. Still, it was another decent effort from the 25-year-old right-hander -- Bibee now has seven strikeouts in back-to-back outings while pitching to a 2.12 ERA over his last five starts. Overall, he's 4-1 on the year with a 3.73 ERA, 1.19 WHIP and 76:19 K:BB through 70 innings. Bibee's currently in line for a road matchup with the Reds in his next outing.

2023 Fantasy Outlook
A fifth-round pick out of Cal State Fullerton in 2021 who signed for just under $260K, Bibee went from unranked and unheralded to one of the top-30 pitching prospects in the minors after a breakout 2022 season. The 6-foot-2, 205-pound righty registered a 31.6 K-BB% at High-A and a 23.5 K-BB% at Double-A while building up to 132.2 innings. He has a complete four-pitch mix, headlined by a mid-90s fastball and a mid-80s slider. Bibee is a flyball pitcher and he probably got lucky with a 4.8% HR/FB in 73.2 innings at Double-A, but he limited the free passes at both stops. The Guardians' rotation is pretty crowded, and Bibee is unlikely to be as dominant going forward as he was in 2022, so it's not a bad idea to explore his trade value this offseason if you were fortunate enough to add him in-season.
