Fantasy Impact:
Kirby’s outings left him lagging—his MRI was clean, and he pushed to keep throwing, but the Mariners shut him down with no return date set, paving the way for Emerson Hancock in the rotation. Fantasy managers should slide his SP2 value down a notch; stash him, but brace for an early absence.
