Fantasy Impact:

Fleming felt some tightness Monday against the Red Sox, and manager Kevin Cash said that they are hoping his early exit from that game will prevent him from missing extended time. Fleming has struggled this season, sporting a 6.83 ERA and 8.20 K/9. On the bright side, his xERA is at 4.23 and he has been very good when sent down to AAA, but there is still something he needs to figure out to be a reliable fantasy asset.
