Cam Schlittler's Results Have Been Driven by Technical Tweak
New York Yankees right-hander Cam Schlittler, who has yet to allow a run in his two starts over 11 2/3 innings while walking none and striking out 15, tweaked the grip on his cutter and increased the velocity on the pitch from 92 mph in 2025 to 94.1 mph in 2026, according to Bryan Hoch of MLB.com. Schlittler is also throwing more cutters and sinkers so far this year. The 25-year-old is 96% rostered in Yahoo leagues for a reason and has quickly become one of the better young arms in baseball in the Yankees' system. In his major-league debut in 2025, Schlittler went 4-3 with a 2.96 ERA (3.74 FIP) and 1.22 WHIP with 84 strikeouts and 31 walks in 73 innings pitched over his 14 starts. He's looking even better this year with an improved arsenal and a bit more giddy-up on his pitches. Fantasy managers shouldn't be taking Schlittler out of their starting lineups for his next scheduled matchup against the Athletics.
