Player Outlook
Braylon Doughty had the exact type of debut season we'd hope for from any prep righty, save for his season ending in late-August due to shoulder inflammation. The recipient of a bonus over $2.5 million in 2024, Doughty logged four scoreless innings in his final outing Aug. 15 and had been on a bit of a roll, accruing a 0.51 ERA, 0.68 WHIP and 25:0 K:BB in 17.2 innings across his last four starts, so the injury seems minor and more of a "tired after a long season" type of issue, but it will still be worth tracking his availability early in spring training. The 6-foot-1 righty amassed a 3.48 ERA, 1.25 WHIP, 99 strikeouts and a 49.4 percent groundball rate in 85.1 innings across 22 starts with Lynchburg. He showcases one of the better curveballs in the minors along with a 93-mph fastball that touches 97 mph with good life. His average changeup is a fine third pitch, and Doughty's plus control allows everything to play up. Prep righties are risky for a reason, and they very rarely march through the minors on a linear path, but Doughty looks like a future No. 3 starter on paper.

Fantasy News

  • Guardians' Braylon Doughty: Shelved with shoulder issue

    Single-A Lynchburg placed Doughty on the 7-day injured list Aug. 23 due to right shoulder inflammation. Doughty logged four scoreless innings in his most recent start Aug. 15 and had been on a bit of a roll, logging a 0.51 ERA, 0.68 WHIP and 25:0 K:BB in 17.2 innings over his four most recent starts. The No. 36 overall pick in 2024 out of high school, Doughty had an excellent first pro season. The 6-foot-1 righty amassed a 3.48 ERA, 1.25 WHIP and 99 strikeouts in 85.1 innings across 22 starts. It's possible the inflammation will subside over the offseason, but it will be worth monitoring Doughty's status when he reports to spring training in 2026.
