2024 Fantasy Outlook
Salinas was one of several prospects acquired by Oakland in the three-team deal that saw the club move Sean Murphy to Atlanta, and the 22-year-old forged a 5.48 ERA over 67.1 innings across 20 appearances -- 18 of those starts -- in his work for Double-A Midland in 2023. While those numbers may not jump off the page in a positive way, he also struck out 89 hitters in that timeframe, and there is swing-and-miss stuff in his arsenal. He can touch the high 90s with his fastball with little effort, and he also has a slider that gets plus grades. Command is a major issue for the right-hander, and there's a good chance he won't throw enough strikes to be a starter at the highest level. The A's added Salinas to the 40-man roster in the offseason, and if he can keep the walks to a minimum, he has a chance to make appearances in Oakland before 2024 comes to a conclusion.

ANALYSIS
Salinas was able to appear in two contests with Oakland this spring, tossing four scoreless frames, allowing two hits and two walks while striking out five batters. He'll look to impress with Double-A Midland, where he had a 5.48 ERA and 1.34 WHIP in 67.1 innings last year.
