2024 Fantasy Outlook
Eder showed significant promise in 15 starts at Double-A in 2021 before needing Tommy John surgery, but he hasn't been able to recapture that form since returning to game action in June of last year. The Marlins sent him to the White Sox for Jake Burger, and the 6-foot-4 southpaw's stock continued trending down after the trade. At his best, Eder showed a plus fastball and a plus slider with decent enough command to start, but he had a 14.1 percent walk rate and decreased fastball velocity at Double-A in 2023. The best thing that can be said about him for dynasty is that the White Sox should give him every opportunity to succeed as a starter in the coming years. He could make his MLB debut in 2024, but he doesn't need to be held this offseason unless you play in a very deep format. Read Past Outlooks

April 10, 2024
Eder (shoulder) struck out three and allowed two earned runs on six hits and two walks across four innings Sunday in Double-A Birmingham's 8-2 win over Chattanooga.
ANALYSIS
Eder threw 69 pitches (49 strikes) in his season debut for Birmingham, after he was unable to make any Cactus League appearances for the White Sox before being optioned to minor-league camp in early March while he contended with right shoulder soreness early in camp. The southpaw retains a spot on the White Sox's 40-man roster, and if health prevails in the months to come, he should have an opportunity to make his big-league debut later in the 2024 season.

2023 Fantasy Outlook
Eder, who underwent Tommy John surgery in September 2021, should be fully healthy for spring training this year. The superb 15 starts he made at Double-A in 2021 are the only pro innings under his belt, as he was advanced enough to completely skip the lower levels in 2021 and didn't pitch in 2020 after the Marlins selected him in the fourth round in 2020. A big 6-foot-4 southpaw with a plus fastball and plus slider, Eder logged a 25.1 K-BB% and 50.3 GB% at Double-A, so we haven't seen him meet much resistance. His changeup is a middling third pitch and his command is good enough for him to project as a starter. The Marlins have a lot of quality young starters, so Eder should be allowed to put the finishing touches on his development while building up his innings in 2023 before joining the big-league rotation in 2024.
