Jack Wenninger Falling Off Stash Radar After Second Consecutive Dud
New York Mets pitching prospect Jack Wenninger began the season with a 1.51 ERA after allowing just six earned runs through his first eight starts at Triple-A Syracuse, but after allowing four runs in his latest outing, he's now yielded eight runs over his last two starts. Because of the great start to the season, the right-hander's ERA still looks good at 2.80, but a FIP of 4.57 suggests perhaps the results haven't matched the expectations, and a 10.8 percent K-BB% with a 1.33 WHIP has slowed the momentum around a potential major league debut. The Mets are currently working with a four-man rotation and mixing in openers, with Jonah Tong not receiving a start yet since his call-up two weeks ago, being used as long relief instead, so Wenninger could still be in the mix for a promotion, but the shine has rubbed off his stash status, and he should only be considered a stash option in the deepest of leagues.
