BALLER MOVE: 12+ Team leagues
ROSTERED IN: 13% of leagues
ANALYSIS:
Yeah, it's been a disastrous season for Schmidt after there was some hype (I contributed to this) for him coming into the season. Schmidt has a 5.83 ERA and a 1.70 WHIP. He's given up 2.1 HR/9 and has yet to record a quality start or a win.
So why am I writing him up? Well, if you know me, you know what I'm going to say next. Schmidt has a 26% K% and a 6% BB%, so he is right there at 20% in the K-BB%. It's hard for a pitcher to be bad while doing that, so I expect some better times ahead for Schmidt. It's a very low-priority thing, but this guy is very likely available in your league right now and I like to give some very deep names that I think could help you out in the future.
