Past Fantasy Outlooks
2025
2024
2023
2022
Kilian has mostly pitched in the minors the past few seasons and is still waiting to take off at the MLB level. Last year, he pitched in only two games for the Cubs after logging exactly three games for the team in each of the two prior seasons. Kilian has a rough 9.22 ERA and 2.01 WHIP in his big-league career across 27.1 innings, though it's hard to draw too many conclusions from that small sample. For Triple-A Iowa last season, the righty was more effective with a 3.22 ERA and 1.15 WHIP across 44.2 innings. After almost exclusively working as a starter in 2022 and 2023 at that level, Kilian made seven starts and six relief appearances in Iowa last season. That could hint at more of a full-time shift to the bullpen for Kilian, which makes sense as Chicago appears ready to move forward with Justin Steele, Shota Imanaga, Jameson Taillon, Javier Assad and Jordan Wicks in the rotation. Assad and Wicks don't have lengthy MLB track records, so Kilian in theory could replace one of them if they struggle, but for now the latter is largely off the fantasy radar as a bullpen depth piece.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
May finish season in minors
Kilian may not get another crack at the majors this season, reports Meghan Montemurro of the Chicago Tribune.
Analysis
Cubs assistant general manager Craig Breslow said Wednesday that Kilian's development is the top priority, and that might mean finishing the season in Triple-A. The 25-year-old was roughed up in his first shot at the big leagues, posting a 10.32 ERA and 9:12 K:BB in 11.1 innings over three starts. He's been inconsistent for Triple-A Iowa and has a 5.79 ERA in nine starts since returning to the minors.
