Fantasy Impact
Manning had been in competition with Casey Mize and Reese Olson for the final two spots in the rotation but has become the odd man out. He worked to a solid 3.38 ERA in five spring outings this season but also allowed six home runs in 16 innings of work. He will still be a notable part of the Tigers rotation but will need to get back to his strikeout ways and stay healthy to become fantasy relevant.
