2025 Fantasy Outlook
Oviedo missed all of the 2024 season while recovering from Tommy John surgery. It was a disappointing setback after showing he showed signs of promise across 32 starts in 2023, allowing two or fewer earned runs on 18 occasions. On the other hand, he still experienced plenty of inconsistency, as he also allowed five or more earned runs on six occasions. The primary culprit for that inconsistency is Oviedo's lack of control (10.6 BB% in 2023), something that is only likely to worsen upon his return to the mound due to his long layoff. Another concern is his usage in 2025, as the strength of the Pirates' roster is their pitching staff. That could set Oviedo up to pitch out of the bullpen or to begin the season in the minors as he has one remaining option available. Read Past Outlooks
Headed to Boston
Oviedo was traded from the Pirates to the Red Sox in exchange for Jhostynxon Garcia and Jesus Travieso on Thursday, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports. Tyler Samaniego and Adonys Guzman are also going to Boston in the deal.
ANALYSIS
After acquiring Sonny Gray earlier in the offseason, the Red Sox remained aggressive in upgrading their rotation this winter. Oviedo rehabbed from Tommy John surgery for much of the 2025 season, though he managed to join the Pirates' rotation for the final two months of the campaign. In nine starts, the right-hander managed a 3.57 ERA,1.21 WHIP and 42:23 K:BB across 40.1 frames. Control has been a consistent concern for Oviedo throughout his 361 innings in the big leagues, but he should be a decent back-end starter for the Red Sox.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2023
2021
Oviedo got his first opportunity as a starter across a full season in the majors in 2023, which was characterized by inconsistency. Judging solely by his surface stats, he allowed five or more earned runs in six of 32 starts. On the other hand, he allowed two or fewer earned runs on 18 occasions. The end result was a 4.31 ERA paired with a 1.37 WHIP across 177.2 innings. Unfortunately, news emerged early in the offseason that Oviedo was dealing with elbow inflammation, and shortly thereafter it was announced that he would undergo Tommy John surgery -- meaning he won't take the mound again until 2025. His only potential appeal would be in dynasty or deep keeper leagues, but there should be significant concerns about his skills after returning from surgery. More specifically, his 10.6 BB% was a problem that contributed to his inconsistent results in 2022, something that could only worsen once he is able to return.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Drawing trade interest
The Pirates have received trade interest in Oviedo, Ken Rosenthal and Will Sammon of The Athletic report.
ANALYSIS
Oviedo missed all of 2024 while recovering from Tommy John surgery and most of 2025 after suffering a right lat strain, but he pitched well down the stretch, posting a 3.57 ERA and 42:23 K:BB over 40.1 innings covering nine starts. The Pirates are likely to trade a starter in exchange for offensive help, though Mitch Keller is seen as the likeliest to be dealt since he's owed $54.5 million over the next three seasons. Oviedo is projected to make around $2 million in 2026 and will be under team control in 2027, as well.
