2024 Fantasy Outlook
Gil underwent Tommy John surgery in May of 2022 and made it back for two appearances at Triple-A in September of 2023. His mid-to-upper-90s fastball velocity was back, averaging 96 mph while touching 99 mph. His devastating high-spin slider was also at its pre-surgery 85-86 mph velocity. This is his last season with a minor-league option, so the 25-year-old righty may move back and forth between Triple-A and the majors, particularly if the Yankees want to keep developing him as a starter. While Gil's repertoire is pretty shallow -- he'll flash a decent changeup but it is rarely used -- the biggest swing skill for him will be his command, as his fastball and slider are good enough pitches to turn a lineup over twice if he's locating them. He's had a walk rate north of 14 percent during four of his six assignments since 2021, and the hope is that his control will be passable as he gets further removed from surgery. If he does get moved to the bullpen, Gil has the stuff to pitch in high-leverage situations. Read Past Outlooks
Fires five frames in no-decision
Gil allowed one run on five hits and two walks while striking out five batters over five innings in a no-decision against Kansas City on Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
Gil did well in the contest, but he needed 97 pitches to get through five innings and thus didn't last long enough to pick up a second straight quality start. The right-hander has looked good since returning from a stay on the 15-day injured list, allowing just one run while posting a 12:4 K:BB over 11 innings. That's great news for the Yankees as the postseason looms, as Gil has been one of the team's best starters this year with a 3.18 ERA, 1.17 WHIP and 156:70 K:BB over 135.2 frames.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2023
2022
2020
Gil's elbow gave out during a start last May at Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre and he wound up needing Tommy John surgery. His recovery has gone as anticipated but we're unlikely to see him as an option for the Yankees until at least the second half. Gil was arguably the most electric young arm the Yanks had prior to surgery, but he's had trouble taking the ball every fifth day and also throwing strikes. He probably won't have any fantasy value in 2023, but there's still plenty of time for him to turn into something.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Fatigue angle downplayed
Yankees manager Aaron Boone and Gil both downplayed the idea that the right-hander is suffering from fatigue and instead cited some mechanics issues following Tuesday's game against the Reds, reports Gary Phillips of the New York Daily News.
ANALYSIS
Gil is scheduled to start against the Red Sox on Sunday Night Baseball, but his last three starts, all losses, have been ugly with 16 runs allowed and a 6:9 K:BB in 9.2 frames. He's also plunked five batters during that stretch. The 26-year-old was one of the best pitchers in baseball through his first 14 starts of the year with a 2.02 ERA, 0.97 WHIP and 10.8 K/9 over 80 innings, but that form has disappeared across the past few weeks. Coming off a lost season while recovering from Tommy John surgery, Gil is already nearing the career high of 108.2 innings he pitched between the majors and minors in 2021, and his workload during the second half could be serious concern.
