Eligibility
The Rockies have signed reliever John Curtiss to a minor league deal and invited him to big league camp at Spring Training.
Fantasy Impact
Curtiss appeared in 15 games last season after recovering from Tommy John surgery. He'll compete for a middle-innings role in the Rockies bullpen.
The New York Mets have outrighted pitcher John Curtiss off the 40-man roster.
Fantasy Impact
Curtiss was one of six Mets players to be outrighted off the club's 40-man roster as he can either be claimed or elect free agency. The right-hander worked to a 4.58 ERA across 15 appearances and 19 2/3 innings for the Mets in 2023.
The Marlins have placed reliever John Curtiss on the 10-day injured list with neck stiffness.
Fantasy Impact
Curtiss is 3-1 with a 2.67 ERA, 1.16 ERA, and .240 OBA through 29 outings (33.2 innings) this season. He's surrendered eight walks while striking out 34 batters. As of now, there is no timetable for the 28-year-old's return.
The Marlins have acquired right-handed pitcher John Curtiss from the Rays in exchange for minor league first baseman Evan Edwards.
Fantasy Impact
Curtiss is a 27-year-old right-hander who has bounced around the American League since being drafted by the Twins in 2014. After making 18 appearances over his first three MLB seasons, Curtiss saw his usage climb in 2020 as he made 17 outings (three starts) with the Rays. He was dominant over 25 innings, allowing just five earned runs on 21 hits for a 1.80 ERA. Heading back to Tampa Bay is Evan Edwards, a 23-year-old first baseman from North Carolina State. Drafted in 2019, Edwards has 73 games of Single-A experience. He owns a career .281/.357/.442 slash line with 50 RBI on 77 hits, including nine home runs. The fourth-round pick should open the year in Double-A and could reach the majors as soon as 2022.
The Rays announced Thursday that John Curtiss will serve as the opener for Game 5 of the ALCS.
Fantasy Impact
Following a shortened regular season that saw Curtiss strike out 25 batters and post a 1.80 ERA in 25 innings pitched, the postseason has been a different story for the right-hander. In 4 1/3 innings thrown this October, Curtiss has allowed five runs on nine hits. While all five of the runs came in his first appearance of the 2020 playoffs, multiple baserunners have reached in each of his four outings.
