2026 review

Andrew Abbott was a full-time starter who battled to stay afloat: a 4.61 ERA and 1.45 WHIP in 166.0 IP for CIN across 32 starts, with an 18.0 K% and a 10.4 BB% over 729 BF, going 6-11. His ERA ran 0.31 below his 4.92 xERA over 729 BF, and his season swung from a 1.61 ERA in 28.0 IP in May to a 7.22 ERA in 28.2 IP in Apr. Drafted at NFBC ADP rank 212, he finished 1455th of 1472 in the TDK LABS 5x5 value rank, 1243 spots below, and 222nd of 236 starting pitchers. The TDK LABS card followed a rough arc: in early May it flagged him as a blow-up waiting to happen against tough matchups, by mid-Jun it had him stabilizing with his strike rate holding on his heater and changeup mix, and by late Sep it read him as a marginal arm whose recent quality outing did not change his low-ceiling profile.
