Ryne Nelson Becoming a Starter to Target Off the Waiver Wire
Arizona Diamondbacks right-hander Ryne Nelson (2-3) allowed one run on six hits and three walks while striking out three across eight innings against the Rockies in his previous start. He owns a 2.36 ERA, 0.93 WHIP, and a 6.6 K:9 across 34 1/3 innings in his last five outings. Overall, he owns a 4.65 ERA, 1.18 WHIP, and 49 strikeouts through 60 frames this season. Nelson will likely see regression, as his BB% is up from 6.6% to 7.5% this season, while his SIERA is currently sitting at 4.54. The Diamondbacks right-hander has pitched well enough to become a starter to target off the waiver wire. Nelson will look to continue his recent success in his next scheduled start against the Mariners at T-Mobile Park in Seattle. Fantasy managers might want to see how Nelson fares against the Mariners before adding him everywhere. However, managers needing a pitching boost can add Nelson, as he's rostered in 60% of Yahoo leagues.
