Roster %
Eligibility
Ben Brown delivered a strong performance in the Cubs' narrow 3-2 win over the Diamondbacks on Monday.
Fantasy Impact
He allowed just one earned run on one hit and two walks while striking out four over six innings. This outing was a significant improvement and should help in lowering his slightly elevated ERA of 4.41. Brown's WHIP stands at a respectable 1.10 reflecting his ability to limit baserunners. Fantasy managers should consider Brown's potential for quality starts like this, particularly in deeper leagues or as a streaming option.
Ben Brown is being called up by the Chicago Cubs.
Fantasy Impact
Brown is the Cubs' number 10 prospect, and will seemingly take over for the injured Justin Steele in the starting rotation. He had a 4.27 ERA and 130 strikeouts in 92.2 innings in the minor leagues in 2023.
