2024 Fantasy Outlook
Brasier was sporting an unsightly 7.29 ERA and 1.57 WHIP when the Red Sox released the righty in late May. A couple of weeks later, Brasier signed a minor-league deal with the Dodgers and was assigned to Triple-A Oklahoma City. After three scoreless frames with five strikeouts on the farm, Brasier was summoned to the Dodgers bullpen where he excelled, recording a pristine .70 ERA and .72 WHIP in 38.2 frames. Even so, the Dodgers let Brasier go after the season. His second half exploits will land the 36-year-old veteran a job, perhaps in a late inning capacity, but not as a closer. Relievers not accumulating saves can be fantasy relevant, but Brasier doesn't miss ample bats to be a fantasy factor. Read Past Outlooks

Re-signs with Dodgers
Brasier signed a two-year, $9 million contract with the Dodgers on Monday, Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
The deal could max out at $13 million if incentives are reached. Brasier was released by the Red Sox last May following a dreadful start but thrived after being picked up by the Dodgers off the scrap heap, posting a 0.70 ERA and 38:10 K:BB over his final 38.2 frames. The 36-year-old will attempt to pick up where he left off in 2024.

Brasier pitched his way out of the closer role in a hurry in 2019 and even pitched his way off the roster for a full month of that season. A toe injury was said to be the culprit, with compensation for the injury leading to kinks in Brasier's mechanics. He returned to form in 2020 and re-established himself as an important piece of the Boston relief corps, leading the team with 10 holds, twice as many as anyone else in the bullpen. Brasier sits 96-plus mph and can break off a good slider. He's posted swinging-strike rates right at 15% in three consecutive seasons and it would be unwise to forget about him.
