BALLER MOVE: Add in all leagues
ROSTERED IN: 30% of leagues
ANALYSIS:
The 6'11'' righty had the second-best outing (by fantasy points scored) of his career on Friday night as he came to fill the other void in the rotation left by the Tyler Mahle and Kenta Maeda injuries. He went seven scoreless innings with six strikeouts and one walk against the Guardians. In three starts this year, he has 16 strikeouts and six walks in 18.1 innings with a nice 13.1% SwStr%.
The ceiling isn't super high on him, and he could very well be the man on the outside looking in when these pitchers get healthy, but I think he's worthy of a start in average or better matchups moving forward, and he's probably available in your league.
