Eligibility
Alex Faedo will take the mound in Sunday's game against the Rays.
Fantasy Impact
Faedo will take the mound for the Tigers second Spring Training game. He posted a 4.45 ERA across 12 starts and 15 appearances last season. He'll likely see both starts and relief appearances once again this year.
Despite a solid strikeout rate, Faedo's overall numbers have been underwhelming, with a high ERA and WHIP.
Fantasy Impact
His performance in this game further highlights his inconsistency, as he was unable to go deep into the game and gave up an earned run. Fantasy managers should approach Faedo with caution moving forward, as his lack of consistency makes him a risky option in most formats.
Tigers pitcher Alex Faedo tossed six innings of two-run ball but a pair of unearned runs also crossed the plate in that time.
Fantasy Impact
A pair of Tigers errors cost them and Faedo dearly in a 7-6 loss to the Cubs Monday. It was yet another solid effort for the right-hander who has allowed just five earned runs over his last four starts, lowering his season-long ERA to 4.91 in the process.
Alex Faedo turned in a solid performance on Tuesday, pitching five scoreless innings while allowing just one hit and one walk with six strikeouts against the Twins.
Fantasy Impact
Despite his efforts, the Tigers ultimately fell to the Twins by a score of 5-3. This outing brings Faedo's season stats to nine games started, a 5.16 ERA, a 0.99 WHIP, and an 8.14 K/9. He currently holds a 2-4 record on the season.
Alex Faedo had a tough outing on Wednesday, allowing three earned runs on four hits and two walks over 4.2 innings pitched against the Twins.
Fantasy Impact
Despite striking out five batters, Faedo was unable to keep the opposing offense in check as the Tigers fell to the Twins by a final score of 9-5. This performance adds to Faedo's season-long struggles, as he now owns a 5.80 ERA and a 1.07 WHIP across eight starts. His 7.8 K/9 and 3.50 strikeout-to-walk ratio show some promise, but his 5.21 FIP suggests that he has been somewhat fortunate with a low .220 BABIP. With a record of 2-4 on the season, Faedo will look to bounce back in his next outing.
