2024 Fantasy Outlook
Green signed a uniquely structured contract with Toronto last offseason after undergoing Tommy John surgery in June 2022. The 32-year-old missed most of the 2023 campaign, but returned in September to post a 5.25 ERA (2.86 xERA) and 16:4 K:BB over 12 innings. If Green can stay healthy and come close to his pre-surgery form - the right-hander boasts a career 3.23 ERA, 1.03 WHIP and 510 strikeouts over 395.2 innings - he should be in line for setup duties in front of closer Jordan Romano.

Closer committee with Romano out
The Blue Jays are expected to use a closer by committee while Jordan Romano (elbow) and Erik Swanson (forearm) are sidelined, with Green, Yimi Garcia and Tim Mayza in the mix, Scott Mitchell of TSN.ca reports.
ANALYSIS
For what it's worth, Mitchell lists Green at the top of the pecking order. Green posted a 5.25 ERA and 16:4 K:BB over 12 innings last September after returning from Tommy John surgery. He gave up seven runs in 7.2 innings this spring, although that came with an 11:1 K:BB. Green, Garcia (three saves in 2023) and Mayza (one save in 2023) are all worthy of speculative adds, but with no clear leader in the hierarchy and Romano hopefully back soon, FAAB investments should be relatively modest.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Surgery on horizon?
Green is dealing with a "significant" forearm injury, according to manager Aaron Boone, per Max Goodman of SI.com and Laura Albanese of Newsday.
ANALYSIS
While Boone didn't provide any specifics of the injury, the reliever is dealing with a serious problem and surgery has not been taken off the table yet. The organization fears Green could also be facing a notable absence but is awaiting further tests. He left Thursday's loss to the Orioles after tossing just 11 pitches due to forearm discomfort.

2017
Green recorded the Yankees' first save of 2021 with closer Aroldis Chapman serving a two-game suspension to start the year. While he only logged six saves overall, it was a career high and he was a standout for the Yankees in high-leverage with career-highs in wins (10), holds (19) and innings pitched (83.2). Green was outstanding at keeping runners off the basepaths, as his 0.88 WHIP ranked third among qualified relievers, while his 1.8 BB/9 ranked 11th. He was a bit homer-prone, serving up 1.5 HR/9, but that was expected since giving up hard contact has been an issue throughout his career. His ability to pitch multiple innings per appearance was extremely valuable to New York, who dealt with injuries to the back-end of their bullpen at various points of the season. Green remains one of the best non-closer relievers who can stabilize ratios while racking up strikeouts, wins and a handful of saves.
