Fantasy Baseball Relief Pitcher Roundup: 3/27

A Review of Key Bullpen and Reliever Usage from Yesterday's Games

Welcome to the RP Roundup, my daily fantasy baseball article reviewing every reliever performance from the previous day.

 

Yesterday’s Performances

PIT 7 – NYM 11

HD: Tobias Myers (1)

  • Yohan Ramírez 2.1 IP, 0 ER, 1 Hits, 1 BBs, 3 Ks – 3 Whiffs, 27% CSW. Props to Yohan for keeping the Pirates in this game for as long as he did. He has two plus breakers in his arsenal and a fastball that sits around 97 MPH, so he definitely has the stuff to make some noise this year.
  • Mason Montgomery 1.1 IP, 2 ER, 1 Hits, 3 BBs, 2 Ks – 6 Whiffs, 19% CSW. Ugh. Same old story with Montgomery to start the year. A+ Stuff with F location. It can be frustrating, and there will be growing pains, but this kind of stuff doesn’t grow on trees.
  • Isaac Mattson 0.2 IP, 2 ER, 3 Hits, 2 BBs, 1 Ks – 3 Whiffs, 14% CSW. Mattson’s fastball has me growing on him, but the lack of a swing-and-miss secondary offering will limit his upside. 
  • Justin Lawrence 1.0 IP, 2 ER, 2 Hits, 0 BBs, 0 Ks – 0 Whiffs, 14% CSW. Lawrence allowed two HR in his debut, and the fact that his sweeper got zero whiffs is a bit concerning. The fastball velocity was down as well. I still see Mattson as the primary right-handed setup man in this bullpen.
  • Gregory Soto 1.0 IP, 0 ER, 0 Hits, 0 BBs, 2 Ks – 5 Whiffs, 75% CSW. Soto looked great in his Pirates debut (that sweeper usage!), and may be someone to keep an eye on in deeper leagues as he shares closer duties with Santana.
  • Dennis Santana 1.0 IP, 0 ER, 0 Hits, 1 BBs, 1 Ks – 1 Whiff, 33% CSW. Santana was fine here, but I still have my long-term concerns. Him pitching the eighth and Soto the seventh might mean something, although Soto faced the middle of the order, with Santana getting the bottom part.

 

  • Tobias Myers 3.0 IP, 1 ER, 1 Hits, 0 BBs, 1 Ks – 3 Whiffs, 21% CSW. Myers did a great job holding things down for the Mets as they cruised to an easy victory. Expect him to continue in this long relief role moving forward.
  • Luis García 1.0 IP, 2 ER, 3 Hits, 0 BBs, 2 Ks – 6 Whiffs, 45% CSW. There’s an opening for a secondary setup role behind Raley and Weaver here, and while García probably has a leg up on the competition, this wasn’t exactly a great start. That splitter was getting Whiffs though (5/6 Whiffs/Swing)!

 

CWS 2 – MIL 14

  • Sean Newcomb 2.1 IP, 2 ER, 3 Hits, 1 BBs, 1 Ks – 2 Whiffs, 27% CSW. Newcomb was able to give the White Sox some much-needed length yesterday, but it wasn’t the prettiest outing. 
  • Tyler Gilbert 1.0 IP, 2 ER, 2 Hits, 1 BBs, 0 Ks – 1 Whiff, 17% CSW. The other other lefty in the White Sox bullpen who has middling stuff and will not have any fantasy value. 
  • Jordan Hicks 0.2 IP, 3 ER, 2 Hits, 4 BBs, 0 Ks – 0 Whiffs, 15% CSW. Oh…Oh no.
  • Jedixson Paez 1.1 IP, 3 ER, 2 Hits, 2 BBs, 0 Ks – 3 Whiffs, 17% CSW. Paez made his MLB debut here, and it didn’t go great. He’s never been much of a Stuff guy, as he’s more known for his command, so those two walks are probably MLB-debut-related jitters. 
  • Jordan Leasure 1.0 IP, 0 ER, 0 Hits, 0 BBs, 0 Ks – 1 Whiff, 18% CSW. Leasure pitched in this game for some reason (they have today off). His stuff looks fine, and he should be in line for holds at least to start the season.

 

  • Aaron Ashby 1.0 IP, 0 ER, 0 Hits, 0 BBs, 2 Ks – 3 Whiffs, 55% CSW. Ashby is doing his thing as the first man out of the pen for the Brewers. He’s a tough guy to roster in holds leagues, given that he can potentially open games or is usually the first out of the pen, which could limit hold chances. The ratios and strikeout volume need to be there for him. 
  • Grant Anderson 1.0 IP, 0 ER, 0 Hits, 0 BBs, 1 Ks – 2 Whiffs, 57% CSW. Sweeper looked great in yesterday’s small sample. 
  • DL Hall 1.0 IP, 0 ER, 1 Hits, 2 BBs, 3 Ks – 3 Whiffs, 33% CSW. Last year was a season to forget for Hall, but he looked good this spring, and his season debut has me a little excited. I just don’t know how the lefty roles are going to shake out in this bullpen yet. 
  • Jake Woodford 1.0 IP, 1 ER, 1 Hits, 0 BBs, 3 Ks – 3 Whiffs, 31% CSW. Long reliever for the Brewers, but hey, he struck out the side, so that’s cool. 

 

WSH 10 – CHC 4

W: Brad Lord (1)

  • PJ Poulin 1.0 IP, 0 ER, 1 Hits, 1 BBs, 0 Ks – 1 Whiff, 12% CSW. Poulin entered this game in the fourth inning, as the Nationals tried to stop some bleeding there. There’s not much upside with Poulin and if he isn’t seeing hold chances, theres on reason to consider rostering him. 
  • Brad Lord 2.1 IP, 1 ER, 4 Hits, 0 BBs, 1 Ks – 3 Whiffs, 28% CSW. As the long reliever in this bullpen, Lord will likely see plenty of work, and he battled here to keep the Nationals ahead. There could be days where he makes sense to stream, but he’s mostly off the fantasy radar. 
  • Clayton Beeter 1.0 IP, 0 ER, 0 Hits, 2 BBs, 1 Ks – 2 Whiffs, 21% CSW. Interesting to see Beeter in the 8th innings with the team up 4 runs. It was to face the bottom of the lineup as well, so the lineup pocket narrative doesn’t work in his favor as well. It’s too early to say he’s not the closer, but it remains something to monitor over the next week or so.
  • Cionel Pérez 1.0 IP, 0 ER, 0 Hits, 0 BBs, 2 Ks – 2 Whiffs, 42% CSW. Pérez got the ninth and struck out Bregman and PCA to end the game. His two breaking balls are legit, he dominated this spring and he’s also throwing 97 MPH again, so he’s all of a sudden interesting again? People were speculating Cole Henry as getting the ninth yesterday if the Nationals didn’t score more runs in the ninth, but I think there’s a real possibility here that Pérez and Beeter may be sharing the closer role based on matchups. 

 

  • Ben Brown 3.1 IP, 2 ER, 3 Hits, 1 BBs, 3 Ks – 4 Whiffs, 27% CSW. Brown remains interesting as a reliever, but the Cubs obsession with him being stretched out as a starter likely limits him to this kind of mop-up duty for the time being. He’ll likely get a chance to start again sooner rather than later. 
  • Hoby Milner 1.0 IP, 0 ER, 1 Hits, 0 BBs, 0 Ks – 0 Whiffs, 18% CSW. Milner is never going to miss bats at a high rate, so this outing checks out. 
  • Jacob Webb 1.0 IP, 0 ER, 1 Hits, 0 BBs, 2 Ks – 3 Whiffs, 40% CSW. I’ve always liked Webb, but he’s probably going ot have a hard time getting consistent hold chances in this bullpen when everyone is healthy. 

 

MIN 1 – BAL 2

L: Kody Funderburk (1)

HD: Tyler Wells (1)

SV: Ryan Helsley (1)

  • Kody Funderburk 0.2 IP, 1 ER, 1 Hits, 1 BBs, 0 Ks – 0 Whiffs, 24% CSW. Blegh, of all the lefties in this bullpen, Funderburk is the one that gives me some hope, but it feels far away still.
  • Justin Topa 1.0 IP, 1 ER, 2 Hits, 0 BBs, 0 Ks – 0 Whiffs, 33% CSW. No thank you
  • Taylor Rogers 1.0 IP, 0 ER, 1 Hits, 0 BBs, 1 Ks – 2 Whiffs, 40% CSW. This is interesting as Rogers pitched the 8th inning…but…it was as the road team, down a run and he faced the middle of the Orioles lineup. That could be considered closer work, but I still can’t picture Rogers closing out games for an entire season, given how terrible his fastball is. The sweeper is still great though!

 

  • Tyler Wells 1.0 IP, 1 ER, 1 Hits, 0 BBs, 1 Ks – 2 Whiffs, 36% CSW. Wells getting the 8th inning was kind of interesting, although not too surprising given the state of this bullpen. Wells is more interesting as a reliever, but I still think I prefer Garcia and Enns here from a stuff perspective (Wells isn’t far behind). Maybe Wells could become a poor man’s Garrett Whitlock though?
  • Ryan Helsley 1.0 IP, 0 ER, 1 Hits, 0 BBs, 3 Ks – 6 Whiffs, 42% CSW. Electric Orioles debut from Helsley who sat 100 MPH and mixed in some nasty splitters and sliders as well. A lot to be excited about for those who roster him.

 

BOS 3 – CIN 0

L: Pierce Johnson (1)

HD: Justin Slaten (1), Garrett Whitlock (1)

SV: Aroldis Chapman (1)

  • Justin Slaten 1.0 IP, 0 ER, 0 Hits, 1 BBs, 2 Ks – 2 Whiffs, 29% CSW. Really encouraging performance from Slaten here with the cutter doing the heavy lifting and that sweeper getting whiffs. Like the other two guys at the back end of this bullpen, he doesn’t necessarily need his best fastball on any given day to have success.
  • Garrett Whitlock 1.0 IP, 0 ER, 1 Hits, 0 BBs, 2 Ks – 4 Whiffs, 50% CSW. Whitlock didn’t have his best fastball today, but the reason he’s elite is because he has three plus plus pitches to lean on when needed. Today, the slider carried him, while the changeup looked good as well. 
  • Aroldis Chapman 1.0 IP, 0 ER, 0 Hits, 0 BBs, 0 Ks – 0 Whiffs, 27% CSW. Zero whiffs from Chapman is…weird and maybe a bit concerning since his velocity remains down (96.9 MPH here). The slider and splitter are now good enough to keep Chapman afloat with the diminished velocity, but it will undoubtedly result in fewer strikeouts. 

 

  • Pierce Johnson 0.1 IP, 1 ER, 2 Hits, 0 BBs, 0 Ks – 1 Whiff, 11% CSW. He’s going to be in the high-leverage mix to begin the season, but he doesn’t have much left in the tank here, while guys like Ashcraft and Phillips are lapping him from a stuff perspective. 
  • Sam Moll 1.0 IP, 0 ER, 0 Hits, 0 BBs, 1 Ks – 2 Whiffs, 67% CSW. Moll did his job here, throwing mostly sweepers (4/6), and that will be his key to success, as that fastball is pretty rough. 
  • Graham Ashcraft 0.2 IP, 0 ER, 0 Hits, 1 BBs, 1 Ks – 3 Whiffs, 29% CSW. This man decided to wait til opening day to sit 99.5 MPH with his cutter and 94 MPH with his slider! I believe he is one of three people on the planet with that ability (him, Clase, and Doval?). If this velo sticks, this should be the year he finally breaks out.
  • Connor Phillips 0.2 IP, 2 ER, 2 Hits, 1 BBs, 1 Ks – 2 Whiffs, 44% CSW. Phillips was an inch away from having a nice outing before Roman Anthony challenged a strike call and got it overturned to extend the inning. It’s encouraging that they used him in the ninth inning down a run, and despite the two runs allowed, the stuff looked amazing, and he even located well here. Still very excited for Phillips ‘ long-term this season.
  • Brock Burke 0.1 IP, 0 ER, 1 Hits, 0 BBs, 0 Ks – 0 Whiffs, 0% CSW. Burke came in to get Jarren Duran after Phillips was pulled, and allowed a single before getting the final out of the inning. His job will be to get lefties out, so he’s starting 0/1. 

 

LAA 3 – HOU 0

L: AJ Blubaugh (1)

HD: Walbert Urena (1), Chase Silseth (1), Drew Pomeranz (1)

SV: Jordan Romano (1)

  • Walbert Urena 0.2 IP, 0 ER, 1 Hits, 1 BBs, 1 Ks – 1 Whiff, 29% CSW. Urena was a surprise addition to this bullpen, and he can throw 100 MPH, but I think the team still wants him to be a starter, so this usage was kind of confusing. 
  • Chase Silseth 0.1 IP, 0 ER, 0 Hits, 0 BBs, 0 Ks – 0 Whiffs, 0% CSW. I do not recommend Silseth, who threw just one pitch in this game.
  • Drew Pomeranz 1.0 IP, 0 ER, 0 Hits, 0 BBs, 0 Ks – 0 Whiffs, 17% CSW. Pomeranz got the 8th in this one, facing Paredes, Correa, and Loperfido. He didn’t get a whiff in this one, but his stuff looked great, although the locations could have been better (the curveball especially). 
  • Jordan Romano 1.0 IP, 0 ER, 0 Hits, 1 BBs, 1 Ks – 1 Whiff, 33% CSW. Romano got the first Angels save chance as he faced the bottom of the Astros lineup (Smith, Allen, Diaz, and Meyers). The stuff actually looked OK here, the command was just terrible. It’s still encouraging to see the Angels believe in him.

 

  • AJ Blubaugh 2.1 IP, 1 ER, 2 Hits, 0 BBs, 3 Ks – 7 Whiffs, 29% CSW. Loss and all, Blubaugh was pretty electric in this game, and given the lack of bullpen depth here, I think he needs to be considered as the top right-handed option behind Bryan Abreu. He flashed three plus pitches yesterday, though, so maybe he really ought to be considered for the rotation again. 
  • Bryan King 1.0 IP, 1 ER, 2 Hits, 0 BBs, 1 Ks – 4 Whiffs, 35% CSW. King’s sweeper was on yesterday; he just had a few get away from him. Still likely one of the top setup men in this bullpen.
  • Christian Roa 1.0 IP, 1 ER, 1 Hits, 2 BBs, 1 Ks – 3 Whiffs, 24% CSW. Meh. Nothing really to get excited about here, the slider is pretty good, but the fastballs are very meh.

 

DET 8 – SD 2

  • Drew Anderson 1.1 IP, 1 ER, 2 Hits, 2 BBs, 0 Ks – 4 Whiffs, 14% CSW. Anderson has a fun changeup, but the rest of the arsenal is pretty blegh. He’ll likely be the long guy in that bullpen for the foreseeable future.
  • Tyler Holton 0.2 IP, 0 ER, 0 Hits, 1 BBs, 0 Ks – 0 Whiffs, 9% CSW. Holton remains the top lefty in this bullpen, so not sure why he pitched in this game, but he looked fine.
  • Will Vest 1.0 IP, 0 ER, 0 Hits, 0 BBs, 1 Ks – 1 Whiff, 29% CSW. Also not sure why Vest was used in this game, but he looked fine here and only threw 7 pitches, so he should be available today too.

 

  • Ron Marinaccio 2.0 IP, 2 ER, 3 Hits, 0 BBs, 2 Ks – 7 Whiffs, 30% CSW. Look at those whiffs. Marinaccio has a really good changeup, but it will be hard to carve out a fantasy viable role in this bullpen.
  • Bradgley Rodriguez 2.0 IP, 0 ER, 0 Hits, 0 BBs, 3 Ks – 7 Whiffs, 50% CSW. There are a lot of bullpens in baseball where Bradgley would be a high-leverage guy, unfortunately, this bullpen is soo deep. One day.
  • David Morgan 1.0 IP, 0 ER, 1 Hits, 1 BBs, 1 Ks – 3 Whiffs, 32% CSW. I like Morgan’s fastball (good start!), but not sure about his secondaries. And this bullpen is super deep. 
  • Wandy Peralta 1.0 IP, 0 ER, 1 Hits, 0 BBs, 0 Ks – 2 Whiffs, 20% CSW. Peralta is way more valuable in real life than in fantasy, but he had that changeup locked in yesterday.

 

TB 7 – STL 9

W: Riley O’Brien (1)

HD: Garrett Cleavinger (1)

SV: Ryne Stanek (1)

  • Ian Seymour 0.0 IP, 5 ER, 5 Hits, 0 BBs, 0 Ks – 1 Whiff, 24% CSW. Nothing to see here…
  • Garrett Cleavinger 0.1 IP, 2 ER, 2 Hits, 0 BBs, 0 Ks – 2 Whiffs, 22% CSW. Cleavinger was forced into the 6th inning to try and clean up Seymour’s mess, but things did not go so well. On a normal day, I still think Cleavinger is most likely to be used in the 8th or 9th inning (maybe 7th based on matchups). 
  • Griffin Jax 0.2 IP, 1 ER, 1 Hits, 0 BBs, 0 Ks – 3 Whiffs, 29% CSW. Jax was forced into the 6th inning to try and clean up Cleavinger’s mess, and that also did not go well. His command wasn’t sharp, but even still, it was really just one mistake fastball to Burleson that burned him. The stuff was still elite, and on a normal day, I still think Jax is most likely to be used in the 8th or 9th inning. Now would be a great time to buy low if you can. 
  • Yoendrys Gómez 2.0 IP, 0 ER, 2 Hits, 1 BBs, 1 Ks – 2 Whiffs, 29% CSW. Interesting long man for the Rays, that sweeper and cutter really play up. Four-seamer out of the pen could be intriguing as well.

 

  • Matt Svanson 0.1 IP, 3 ER, 3 Hits, 0 BBs, 0 Ks – 1 Whiff, 12% CSW. So this was disappointing two-fold. The early game usage for starters, but then the results as Svanson allowed 3 earned while getting just one out. Last year, he allowed just 13 earned runs over 60+ innings. I’m worried about a potential Porter Hodge-esque relapse here, as Svanson’s fastball is sketchy, but it’s probably too soon to panic. In save-only leagues, though, you can safely move on for now. 
  • Justin Bruihl 0.1 IP, 2 ER, 1 Hits, 1 BBs, 0 Ks – 0 Whiffs, 22% CSW. Bruihl bounced around a few organizations this offseason before the Cardinals claimed him. The sweeper is interesting, the fastball is not.
  • Chris Roycroft 0.1 IP, 1 ER, 3 Hits, 0 BBs, 0 Ks – 0 Whiffs, 15% CSW. Nope.
  • JoJo Romero 0.2 IP, 0 ER, 2 Hits, 0 BBs, 0 Ks – 0 Whiffs, 22% CSW. Romero was able to navigate through this one without allowing a run (thanks to O’Brien). The stuff remains just OK, but against mostly left-handed lineup pockets, he should be just fine. 
  • Riley O’Brien 1.1 IP, 0 ER, 1 Hits, 0 BBs, 2 Ks – 1 Whiff, 24% CSW. Solid outing here from O’Brien, but the command is still a bit wonky as it was for him this spring. I still like O’Brien as a reliever, and he’s not someone to drop in save-only leagues yet. 
  • Ryne Stanek 1.0 IP, 0 ER, 0 Hits, 3 BBs, 1 Ks – 6 Whiffs, 35% CSW. So here’s the thing, as bad as this was, I’m kind of still in on Stanek? The command was atrocious here, but I see the vision, and I hope that Stanek and the Cardinals can make the proper adjustments (he was just missing a little too high with his four-seamer). The slider looked great, and the splitter is awesome (when he’s ahead in counts). A+ Stuff and F locations aside, this could be exciting if you like to live on the edge with your closers. 

 

TEX 3 – PHI 5

SV: Jhoan Duran (1)

  • Jalen Beeks 1.1 IP, 0 ER, 1 Hits, 0 BBs, 2 Ks – 4 Whiffs, 36% CSW. Fun changeup, bad fastball. 
  • Tyler Alexander 1.0 IP, 0 ER, 0 Hits, 0 BBs, 0 Ks – 0 Whiffs, 0% CSW. Zeros across the board, sounds about right. 
  • Carter Baumler 1.0 IP, 0 ER, 1 Hits, 1 BBs, 1 Ks – 1 Whiff, 19% CSW. There’s a really exciting mix here with Baumler’s fastball/curveball combo, and he really should be in the high-leverage mix for this bullpen. 

 

  • Jonathan Bowlan 1.0 IP, 0 ER, 1 Hits, 0 BBs, 0 Ks – 1 Whiff, 25% CSW. Didn’t get to throw a lot of pitches, but I’m still very intrigued by that deep arsenal. Four-seamer sat 98 MPH over four thrown yesterday.
  • Zach Pop 1.0 IP, 0 ER, 0 Hits, 1 BBs, 0 Ks – 1 Whiff, 19% CSW. Doesn’t throw as hard as he used to, and still doesn’t have an interesting secondary.
  • Kyle Backhus 0.1 IP, 3 ER, 3 Hits, 0 BBs, 0 Ks – 0 Whiffs, 20% CSW. Likely not on this roster when their bullpen is at full strength.
  • Jhoan Duran 0.2 IP, 0 ER, 1 Hits, 0 BBs, 1 Ks – 4 Whiffs, 42% CSW. Forced to come in for two outs, but we’ll take the cheap save. Stuff is still a little bit down, but I’m not worried yet.

 

AZ 2 – LAD 8

HD: Blake Treinen (1)

  • Juan Morillo 1.0 IP, 0 ER, 1 Hits, 1 BBs, 1 Ks – 3 Whiffs, 35% CSW. Even as a righty, Morillo has a real chance to become the top “lefty” out guy in this bullpen. 
  • Ryan Thompson 1.0 IP, 0 ER, 0 Hits, 0 BBs, 1 Ks – 1 Whiff, 36% CSW. Slider is still great!
  • Taylor Clarke 0.1 IP, 4 ER, 3 Hits, 0 BBs, 0 Ks – 0 Whiffs, 31% CSW. Clarke was in the mix for a setup role, but this outing certainly won’t help. 
  • Andrew Hoffmann 1.2 IP, 0 ER, 1 Hits, 2 BBs, 0 Ks – 1 Whiff, 12% CSW. Great changeup (should he be the team’s “lefty”?), questionable fastball, and command. 

 

  • Blake Treinen 1.0 IP, 0 ER, 1 Hits, 0 BBs, 1 Ks – 4 Whiffs, 33% CSW. He actually located well in this one, but still touting just mediocre stuff (although the sinker sitting at 97 MPH is interesting). 
  • Will Klein 1.0 IP, 0 ER, 0 Hits, 0 BBs, 1 Ks – 2 Whiffs, 67% CSW. Woah, Klein finished with a triple A+ card last night (A+ Stuff, A+ Locations, A+ PLV), and while it was only from 9 pitches thrown, it shows the type of upside Klein possesses. 
  • Tanner Scott 1.0 IP, 0 ER, 0 Hits, 0 BBs, 0 Ks – 0 Whiffs, 38% CSW. Scott was the other reliever to get that triple A+ card, and while the A+ Stuff shouldn’t be a surprise, it’s great to see that A+ Location grade.

 

CLE 6 – SEA 4

W: Connor Brogdon (1)

L: Gabe Speier (1)

HD: Shawn Armstrong (1), Erik Sabrowski (1)

SV: Cade Smith (1)

  • Connor Brogdon 1.0 IP, 0 ER, 1 Hits, 0 BBs, 1 Ks – 4 Whiffs, 25% CSW. Brogdon is known for his changeup, but that four-seamer got all four Whiffs. This bullpen is deep but Brogdon has the ability to factor in to late-game spots.
  • Shawn Armstrong 0.2 IP, 1 ER, 1 Hits, 0 BBs, 2 Ks – 3 Whiffs, 50% CSW. One mistake here that Canzone jumped on, but otherwise, he was great.
  • Erik Sabrowski 1.1 IP, 0 ER, 0 Hits, 0 BBs, 3 Ks – 4 Whiffs, 50% CSW. Outside of Helslely, this may have been the best relief performance yesterday. Sabrowski sawed through the top of the Mariners lineup (Donovan, Raleigh, J-Rod, Naylor) with ease. There aren’t many lefty relievers in baseball that can better him or match him from a Stuff perspective, and tonight his command was also on. 
  • Cade Smith 1.0 IP, 0 ER, 0 Hits, 0 BBs, 1 Ks – 2 Whiffs, 38% CSW. Picking up where he left off last season. Great start for Smith. 

 

  • Jose A. Ferrer 0.2 IP, 0 ER, 2 Hits, 0 BBs, 0 Ks – 2 Whiffs, 27% CSW. Was hoping to see more offspeed stuff from Ferrer in Seattle, but he threw 10 sinkers to just one changeup (0 sliders). 
  • Gabe Speier 1.0 IP, 2 ER, 3 Hits, 0 BBs, 1 Ks – 4 Whiffs, 40% CSW. Not going to panic yet about Speier, but he hasn’t exactly looked dominant this past month. The slider seems off right now?
  • Casey Legumina 1.0 IP, 0 ER, 1 Hits, 1 BBs, 2 Ks – 3 Whiffs, 21% CSW. Not a ton to be interested in here, plus this bullpen is too deep for Legumina to have an impact role for fantasy purpo
  • Cooper Criswell 1.0 IP, 1 ER, 1 Hits, 1 BBs, 1 Ks – 1 Whiff, 35% CSW. You don’t want this.
