2024 Fantasy Outlook

$Signed a one-year, minor-league contract with the Reds in May of 2022.
Finds work in Cincinnati
PCincinnati Reds  AAA
May 10, 2022
Lockett agreed Monday with the Reds on a minor-league contract, Bobby Nightengale of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.
ANALYSIS
Lockett will return to North America to continue his career after he spent the 2021 campaign in the Korea Baseball Organization with the Doosan Bears. Despite Lockett turning in a 2.98 ERA and striking out 112 in 124 innings last season, Doosan elected not to bring the 28-year-old back for the 2022 campaign, and he's been a free agent ever since. Lockett previously saw big-league action with the Padres, Mets and Mariners between 2018 and 2020, but the Reds will likely view him as starting depth in the upper levels of the minors. He'll first report to the team's spring training facility in Goodyear, Ariz. to build up before eventually settling at Triple-A Louisville.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Nearing NPB deal
PToronto Blue Jays  AAA
December 20, 2020
Lockett is close to signing a contract with the Doosan Bears of Nippon Professional Baseball, Daniel Kim of MBC Sports+ reports.
ANALYSIS
Lockett was claimed off waivers by the Blue Jays at the beginning of December, but it appears as though he could spend the 2021 season in Japan. Since he's on Toronto's 40-man roster, a buy-out would need to be worked out between the two organizations.

2017 Fantasy Outlook
Lockett put together an encouraging start to his 2016 season with Double-A San Antonio, where he backed up his great numbers with a 2.78 FIP and limited walks (0.6 BB/9). When Lockett arrived at Triple-A El Paso, his ERA took a hit. However, all was not lost for the young right-hander. At age 22, he was still fairly young for the Triple-A level, and his high BABIP .339 would indicate he was the victim of some bad luck. Additionally, Lockett maintained a low BB/9 of 1.0 at the highest farm level. Still, as a pitcher who has never generated a ton of strikeouts, he projects to be a low-ceiling strike thrower who is likely a year away from a major league call-up.
