Eligibility
Brady Singer delivered a quality start but didn't factor in the decision as the Royals fell 6-5 to the Tigers on Saturday.
Fantasy Impact
He pitched five innings, allowing just one earned run on four hits and three walks while striking out six. Despite the strong outing, Singer's season continues to be a mixed bag for fantasy managers. His ERA remains impressive at 2.62, and a WHIP of 1.02 is elite, suggesting he's been effective at limiting base runners. However, his FIP at 4.10 indicates some potential regression, and a low BABIP of .212 might suggest he's been a bit lucky. Fantasy managers should keep an eye on these peripherals, but Singer remains a viable option in most formats, especially given his solid strikeout rate.
Brady Singer endured a rough outing in Monday's 5-3 loss to the Blue Jays, allowing five earned runs on five hits and three walks while striking out five over six innings.
Fantasy Impact
This performance marked a notable deviation from his strong start to the season, which boasted a 2.76 ERA and a 0.95 WHIP through his first five starts. Despite the hiccup, Singer's underlying metrics, including a solid 8.6 K/9 and a 2.80 strikeout-to-walk ratio, suggest he can bounce back.
Brady Singer helped guide the Kansas City Royals to a resounding 13-3 victory over the Houston Astros on Thursday with five innings of one-run ball.
Fantasy Impact
Over 5 innings, Singer allowed just a single earned run on five hits and two walks, while striking out four. This outing not only secured his second win of the season but also continued to bolster his already impressive early-season statistics. With a microscopic 0.98 ERA and a WHIP that whispers elite at 0.76, Singer is making a strong case for himself in fantasy circles. His K/9 sits comfortably at 8.8, complemented by a 4.50 strikeout-to-walk ratio, indicating his ability to generate outs without relying heavily on his defense. However, a .182 BABIP suggests some regression might be on the horizon, as such a low number typically indicates a pitcher benefiting from good luck or exceptional defense, or both. Fantasy managers should enjoy the ride while it lasts but be wary of potential bumps ahead. Nonetheless, Singer's early dominance is hard to ignore, and he can be a valuable asset in fantasy leagues, especially if he can maintain a semblance of his current form.
Brady Singer signed a one-year deal worth $4.85 million with the Royals to avoid arbitration.
Fantasy Impact
Singer posted a 5.52 ERA across 29 starts last season in Kansas City. He should remain in a similar role this season in the Royals starting rotation.
Brady Singer had a rough outing on Tuesday against the White Sox, surrendering six earned runs on nine hits over five innings pitched.
Fantasy Impact
The right-hander struggled with his command, issuing one walk while striking out just two batters. With this performance, Singer's season ERA rose to 5.34, and his WHIP now sits at 1.42. While he has shown flashes of potential throughout the season, inconsistencies have plagued him, resulting in a disappointing 8-10 record. Fantasy owners should approach Singer with caution moving forward, as his recent struggles raise concerns about his reliability and ability to consistently deliver quality starts.
