2024 Fantasy Outlook
Walter has a spot on the 40-man roster and will compete as a backend starter during spring training. Beyond Lucas Giolito and Brayan Bello, Walter's name can be thrown into the mix with Tanner Houck, Garrett Whitlock and Nick Pivetta. The 27-year-old lefty had a rocky first half, which included a 6.26 ERA over 23 innings mid-summer for Boston. He wasn't much better before that at Triple-A Worcester; however, the right-hander thrived during the second half upon his return to Triple-A (1.48 ERA over 30 innings). He attributed his success to pounding the strike zone. That's what he did during a breakout 2021 campaign to put himself on the prospect radar. The organization will probably want Walter to build off the second-half success and begin 2024 at Worcester. If he's to break camp with Boston, it will be likely be as a multi-inning relief arm.

Shifts to Triple-A's 60-day IL
Triple-A Worcester transferred Walter (shoulder) from its 7-day injured list to the 60-day IL on Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
Walter possesses a spot on the Red Sox's 40-man roster, but he's currently residing on the Triple-A club's IL since he was optioned to the affiliate in early March. He strained his left shoulder toward the end of camp and has yet to pitch for Worcester. His season debut now doesn't appear as though it'll come until at least June as a result of his move to the 60-day IL.

2023 Fantasy Outlook
Walter began 2022 at Double-A Portland and was promoted to Triple-A Worcester after he posted a 2.88 ERA with 68 strikeouts across 50 innings, but he made only two starts for Worcester before he was lost for the season with a neck strain. The left-hander was added to the Red Sox's 40-man roster in November to protect him from being selected during the Rule 5 draft, which clearly indicates how he's valued by the organization. Boston's rotation has more question marks than locks, which should provide Walter the chance to make his big-league debut in 2023. However, he's likely to open the campaign at Triple-A and may need to pitch well there to receive that opportunity.
