2025 Fantasy Outlook
Webb was steady in a setup role for Baltimore, spending most of the 2024 season in the majors. The 31-year-old righty posted his best ERA and WHIP numbers since 2019 while establishing new career-highs in games played (60), innings pitched (56.2) and holds (14). Webb threw more sweepers in 2024, but his changeup (.125 BAA) continues to be his most effective pitch. Although he's been effective at generating whiffs throughout his career, you'd expect his strikeout rate to be better than the 23.5 percent mark for his career. Webb will compete for a high-leverage role with the Rangers after signing a 1-year, $1.25 million deal with Texas in December. That role might correlate with how many free passes he's issuing, as he does have trouble finding the strike zone (11.1 career walk percentage). Read Past Outlooks

ANALYSIS
Webb signed a one-year deal with the Rangers in December after spending the 2024 campaign with the Orioles, but the 32-year-old right-hander will now be on the lookout for a team in need of bullpen depth. He finished the 2025 regular season with seven holds along with a 3.00 ERA, 1.03 WHIP and 58:19 K:BB across 66 innings.

Stat Review
How does Jacob Webb compare to other relievers?
This section compares his stats with all relief pitcher seasons from the previous three seasons (minimum 30 innings)*. The bar represents the player's percentile rank. For example, if the bar is halfway across, then the player falls into the 50th percentile for that stat and it would be considered average.

* Exit Velocity, Barrels/BBE %, Balls Hit 95+ MPH %, and Spin Rate are benchmarked against 2019 data (min 30 IP). See here for more exit velocity/barrels stats plus an explanation of current limitations with that data set.

  • Spin Rate
    Spin Rate is the rate of spin on a baseball after it is released. It is measured in revolutions per minute (rpm).

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2021
2020
Webb ended 2019 with an elbow injury, requiring arthroscopic surgery. He then began the 2020 season on the injured list with a right shoulder strain, which kept him sidelined until September. Webb took the ball eight times down the stretch in the regular season and three additional times in the playoffs, allowing a total of three earned runs over 13 innings (all three earned runs coming against the Dodgers in his final appearance of the year). Webb does not have overpowering fastball velocity, but he can pull the string with a changeup that comes in roughly 11 mph slower than the four-seamer. That disparity had hitters out in front and whiffing at the changeup 45.2% of the time, per Statcast. He was eased back in with lower-leverage work after the injury -- Webb didn't collect a single hold after earning nine in 2019 -- but Webb should have a chance to pitch more important innings in 2021.
Webb was effective in his first stint in the majors last season, notching nine holds and two saves in 36 outings before an elbow injury ended his campaign in mid-July. Enthusiasm about his 1.39 ERA and 1.11 WHIP should be tempered, however, as his 4.29 FIP implies that a fair amount of luck was involved in his success. Indeed, Webb's .233 BABIP is likely unsustainable given the batted-ball profile, though he did create some of his own good fortune with a 17.5 IFFB%. The right-hander's 86.0% strand rate also figures to regress as his BABIP rises, especially since Webb didn't strike out many batters (21.4 K%) in his 32.1 major-league innings. Webb does have the tools to be an effective reliever -- he throws a 95 mph fastball with good spin and held hitters to a .152 BAA on his curve -- but he figures to be more of a middle-innings arm than a shutdown, high-leverage stud.
