2024 Fantasy Outlook
Butto received an extended look in the Mets' rotation last season and was solid with a 3.64 ERA, 1.33 WHIP and 38:23 K:BB over 42 innings. He fared much worse at Triple-A Syracuse (5.93 ERA in 19 starts), which gives some pause for the big-league numbers given the small sample size. The right-hander isn't likely to make the Opening Day rotation in 2024 but could earn a spot in the bullpen with a strong showing in spring training. Read Past Outlooks

Notches save Saturday
PNew York Mets
August 31, 2024
Butto earned a save against the White Sox on Saturday, allowed one run on three hits in one inning.
ANALYSIS
The Mets held a three-run lead heading into the bottom of the ninth inning and turned to Butto to close things down. The right-hander didn't cruise, giving up a run on a trio of hits and allowing the tying run to reach first base, but he was ultimately successful in converting his third save of the campaign. Butto isn't a threat to Edwin Diaz's job as closer; Diaz was simply unavailable after pitching on three straight days.

2023 Fantasy Outlook
Butto made his big-league debut in August and was rocked for seven runs on nine hits -- including a couple home runs -- over four innings in Philadelphia. That's going to leave a mark for a while, but one poor outing should not overshadow Butto's larger body of work between Double-A and Triple-A in 2022. The right-hander pitched to a 3.56 ERA and 138:44 K:BB in 129 innings across the two highest levels of minor-league baseball last season, establishing himself as a prospect to watch in the Mets organization. He's a fastball-curveball-changeup pitcher with a 10-mph gulf in velocity between the heater and offspeed. The Mets don't need to force the issue, but Butto is on the 40-man roster and will be a candidate for spot starts and cleanup duty as needed.
