PROSPECT: Robert Gasser, SP, Milwaukee Brewers
ANALYSIS: Gasser was selected by the Padres with the 71st overall pick in the 2021 draft. The lefty was traded at last year's trade deadline to Milwaukee in the Josh Hader deal.
In 2022, his first full season in the minors, Gasser jumped up three levels, finishing with a handful of starts in Triple-A. Overall, he posted a 3.94 ERA and 1.30 WHIP over 137 innings, striking out 172 and walking 52. He's put up similar stats this year, spending the whole year in Triple-A, with a 3.94 ERA and 1.27 WHIP over 107 1/3 innings, with a 133/43 BB/K rate.
Gasser works with a low-90s fastball that touches the mid-90s, working with a slider and curve that are above-average and touch plus as well as an average change. His command is excellent for a guy who works from a low arm slot.
VERDICT: Gasser profiles similarly to how Hader did in the minors, a mid-rotation profile in the rotation that could excel in the back of a bullpen. He should be rostered in all dynasty formats, and he's got a decent shot of making his big league debut yet this year.
