2025 Fantasy Outlook
Ginn may not do anything noteworthy for the rest of his big league career, but he can at least be the answer to the trivia question - who earned the last win at Oakland Coliseum before the A's moved away? Ginn was that guy. Ginn earned his way to Oakland after making 20 starts between Double-A and Triple-A. Ginn's calling card is a sinking fastball, which is tough to elevate and has generated a plethora of ground balls throughout his career, which will come in handy as the Athletics move into a more hostile run environment. Ginn's numbers are a bit confusing, because while the league did hit well over .300 off his non-sliders last season, he also had an overall above-average whiff rate on his pitches. The challenge for Ginn is that his putaway pitch is his slider, but he falls back to his sinker when he is down in the count. Paul Blackburn made this approach work in Oakland in recent seasons, but we don't have a baseline for what can happen in Sacramento. Deep AL only leagues could look at him for reserve streaming depth, but he will likely be a regular on the waiver wire throughout the season. Read Past Outlooks
Sent to injured list
The Athletics placed Ginn on the 15-day injured list Saturday with right elbow inflammation.
ANALYSIS
Ginn surrendered three runs over 3.2 innings during his most recent start Thursday, and he appears to have come away from the outing with some elbow trouble. He'll sit out the next couple of weeks at least as a result. A rotation replacement for Ginn hasn't been named yet, but Jacob Lopez will come up from Triple-A to give the Athletics extra bullpen depth for now.

2021 Fantasy Outlook
Ginn logged a 3.13 ERA, 1.05 WHIP and 105:19 K:BB in 86.1 innings as a freshman at Mississippi State and was on track to go in the middle of the first round last year as a draft-eligible sophomore before needing Tommy John surgery in March of 2020. The Mets still gave him first-round money ($2.9 million) after selecting him in the second round. The 6-foot-2, 200-pound righty works with a mid-90s sinker and a wipeout slider, which is his best pitch. Ginn's changeup was improving prior to his injury, and developing that offering will be his top priority. He is athletic and projects for at least average command. While he has plus velocity, his fastball is geared more toward inducing weak contact than whiffs in the zone. However, he should still be able to hover around a strikeout per inning via his slider and improving changeup. Ginn should return to game action in the first half of the season.
