Festa entered last season as a rising prospect in contention for a spot in the major league rotation, but struggled in the majors and had his season end early due to thoracic outlet syndrome. He'll compete for a spot in the rotation this spring but questions remain about his health. Festa lost out on a rotation spot last spring but thrived again at Triple-A with a 2.59 ERA and a 32% K% with good control (5.7% BB%). It was a different story in the majors where he had a 5.40 ERA and just a 23.1% K%, giving up 10 home runs in 11 outings. His struggles in the majors may have been in part due to injury as he landed on the injured list in August and it was later revealed he had thoracic outlet syndrome. He avoided surgery and was given Botox injections to alleviate a compressed nerve between his right shoulder and neck. He's expected to be ready for spring training where he'll compete for a final spot in the rotation. Read Past Outlooks
