Spencer, for hireThe Philadelphia Phillies, currently sitting eight games up in the NL East, placed Taijuan Walker on the injured list Sunday with right index finger inflammation. With a 5.60 ERA and 1.49 WHIP across 10 starts, the right-hander obviously hasn't been a fantasy asset this season. His rotation replacement, however, does carry some fantasy appeal.
After spending the last seven weeks in the bullpen, Spencer Turnbull is scheduled to rejoin the Phillies' starting rotation on Wednesday against the Detroit Tigers. Although the 31-year-old has struggled a bit as a reliever, holding a 4.26 ERA and 1.42 WHIP in 19 relief innings, he was terrific as a member of the rotation earlier in the season. Through six starts, Turnbull delivered a 1.67 ERA and 0.84 WHIP while fanning 28.3% of the batters he faced (compared to a 23.5% K% out of the bullpen).
It's rare to see a pitcher show more dominance as a starter than a reliever, so it's fair to expect Turnbull's strikeout rate as a starter to come down a bit. However, we also shouldn't discount what we saw from the right-hander in the rotation. Turnbull has been a different pitcher in 2024, relying heavily on a sweeper (a new pitch he introduced back in April) that he's throwing 32% of the time. According to PitcherList.com's PLV metric, the sweeper grades out as the righty's best pitch.
For fantasy purposes, Turnbull, who is available in 86% of ESPN.com leagues, makes for a quality streaming option on Wednesday against Detroit, his former team. Since the beginning of June, the Tigers rank 25th in baseball with an 86 wRC+, fanning 24.1% of the time, the seventh-highest K% in MLB. Because he's been pitching in long relief, hurling three frames his last time out, he shouldn't be on too strict of a pitch count on Wednesday. Enjoy the soft-landing spot against Detroit and go from there.
Everything else you need to know for Wednesday Andrew Abbott (20% rostered in ESPN leagues) also gets a soft-landing spot-on Wednesday, squaring off against a Pittsburgh Pirates offense that's been one of the worst in baseball in the last month. Over the last 30 days, the Bucs sport a 75 wRC+ (29th in MLB) with a 25.5% K% (28th) and a 6.4% BB% (26th). For his part, Abbott has a 3.40 ERA and 1.18 WHIP over 15 starts this season, holding opponents to three earned runs or fewer in eight of his last nine starts. While the drop-in strikeout rate (from 9.9 K/9 in 2023 to 7.4 in 2024) has been discouraging, he still shouldn't have trouble keeping the Pirates at bay. A date with the Chicago White Sox is nearly always a prime spot for potential streamers, and that's the case again on Wednesday, with Gavin Stone (47%) getting the privilege of taking the hill against MLB's worst offense. The Pale Hose rank dead last in baseball in both wRC+ (77) and wOBA (.277), and their strikeout rate in June (24.9%) is bottom-five. Stone, meanwhile, remains available in more than 50% of ESPN leagues despite owning a 3.04 ERA and 1.20 WHIP across 14 starts. Although he's failed to generate many swings and misses at the big-league level (19.1% K%), limiting his upside, Stone has been very consistent. He has racked up at least five innings in 10 straight starts, which has helped him take advantage of the Dodgers' offense behind him, as he has secured a team-high eight wins. Wyatt Langford's early struggles, along with an IL stint, led to many fantasy managers understandably cutting bait on the youngster. It might be time to scoop him back up, though. The 22-year-old is slashing .340/.389/.600 over his last 14 games with a pair of homers, 16 RBI, and six stolen bases. During that two-week stretch, Langford has been the sixth-best player in fantasy baseball, according to the ESPN Player Rater. It's time to take another chance on the former first-round pick, who is rostered in just 43% of ESPN leagues. Langford's Texas Rangers take on Colin Rea and the Milwaukee Brewers on Wednesday. Arizona's Ryne Nelson is coming off a couple of nice outings against weak offenses, but that doesn't change the fact that it's been a rough campaign for the right-hander. His ERA and WHIP across 13 appearances (12 starts) are sitting at 5.18 and 1.51, respectively, and he's surrendering a .362/.406/.567 triple slash to right-handed batters. With Nelson taking the bump against the Minnesota Twins on Wednesday, there are plenty of bats to consider. Carlos Correa (68%), Ryan Jeffers (55%), Willie Castro (31%), Carlos Santana (16%), Byron Buxton (13%), and Jose Miranda (4%) are all in play here, whether as streamers or as a DFS stack.It's never too late to start a free fantasy baseball league. Leagues drafted this week will start scoring fresh the following Monday. Come and join the fun!
