Beau Brieske Serving As Opener For Tigers
3 months agoDetroit Tigers right-hander Beau Brieske will serve as the team's opener for Saturday's contest against the division-rival Chicago White Sox at Comerica Park, a day after the club clinched their first postseason berth in 10 years on Friday night. This will be Brieske's 12th start of the year for Detroit. The 26-year-old has gone 4-4 on the year with a 3.56 ERA, a 1.28 WHIP and 68 strikeouts in 65 2/3 innings over 45 appearances (11 starts). His last start came on Sept. 14 against the Baltimore Orioles, when he went just one inning, walking two and striking out one. Brieske is only expected to go an inning or two in the second game of the series before being replaced by a bulk reliever, so we wouldn't recommend using him as a streamer in any fantasy formats. In his 11 starts in 2024, Brieske has gone only 14 2/3 innings, allowing nine runs (eight earned) while walking 11 and fanning 17.
