News
	Ranger Suarez will start on Sunday for the Red Sox against the Yankees. Ari Koslow Sun, Jun 7th	Michael Wacha allowed four earned runs on eight hits and no walks while striking out two over 5.2 innings in Friday's loss to the Twins. Chase Davis Sat, Jun 6th
	Suarez has a 3.38 ERA, 1.16 WHIP, and 57:19 K:BB across 59.2 innings this season and faces the Yankees in New York next weekend. He has not recorded a quality start since the end of April and has worked six-plus innings just three times in 11 outings. Bruno Mulé Mon, Jun 1st	Michael Wacha allowed six earned runs on eight hits and four walks while striking out five over five innings in Sunday's loss to the Rangers. Chase Davis Mon, Jun 1st
	Suarez has a 3.02 ERA and 47:17 K:BB across 53.2 innings this season, working with a 91.1 mph fastball and a 21% whiff rate. He has gone six-plus innings just three times in ten starts and has failed to reach the sixth in each of his last four outings. Entering Tuesday, he had allowed just one run across 13.2 innings this month. Bruno Mulé Wed, May 27th	Michael Wacha allowed two earned runs on five hits and two walks while striking out five over seven innings in Monday's loss to the Yankees. Chase Davis Tue, May 26th
	Ranger Suarez allowed one earned run on four hits and three walks while striking out three over 4 1/3 innings in Tuesday’s win over the Royals. Chris Schommer Wed, May 20th	Michael Wacha allowed one earned run on six hits and two walks while striking out eight over six innings in Wednesday's 4-3 loss to the Red Sox. Chase Davis Thu, May 21st
	Ranger Suarez allowed four hits and one walk while striking out eight over 5 1/3 scoreless innings in Thursday’s loss to the Phillies. Chris Schommer Fri, May 15th	Michael Wacha allowed three earned runs on five hits and one walk while striking out five over six innings in Friday's loss to the Cardinals. Chase Davis Sat, May 16th
Notes
	Ranger Suárez quietly delivered his best all-around season in 2025, pairing a 3.20 ERA with career-best walk suppression (5.8 BB%) while holding hitters to a sub-.680 OPS for the second straight year. His strikeout rate (23.2%) remained stable, but the real growth came from improved command and softer contact, as his HardHit rate dipped to a career low despite a slight drop in ground-ball rate. The 2026 projections largely bank on more of the same: mid-3.00s ratios, solid volume, and strong WHIP support driven by control rather than overpowering stuff. While he lacks true ace-level strikeout upside, Suárez's durability, efficiency, and run-prevention profile make him a solid addition to fantasy rotations. Kelly Kirby - FantasyPros
