Aaron Ashby Continues to Rack Up Wins, Attracting More Waiver Interest
Milwaukee Brewers left-handed reliever Aaron Ashby doesn't always pitch in high-leverage spots at the end of games, but he's still been clutch out of the bullpen for the first-place Brewers and for fantasy managers alike in 2026. The 28-year-old southpaw has an MLB-leading 10 wins (zero losses) in his 33 appearances (one start as an opener) while pitching to a 2.80 ERA (2.85 FIP) and 1.33 WHIP with 61 strikeouts and 22 walks in 45 innings pitched. Ashby actually has a 6.00 ERA (5.43 FIP) with four walks and 10 strikeouts in nine innings pitched over seven outings in June, but it hasn't stopped him from picking up a win and two holds. He gave up a run in his last outing on Tuesday against the Cleveland Guardians, but the Brewers once again bailed him out for his major-league-leading 10th victory. Not only is Ashby attractive as a vulture for wins off the waiver wire, but he's also sporting a career-high 31.6% strikeout rate. A career-high 11.4% walk rate is getting him in trouble, too. If you need wins, Ashby might be worth targeting, and he's rostered in only 36% of Yahoo leagues.
