The Pittsburgh Pirates have traded reliever Caleb Ferguson to the Seattle Mariners.

Fantasy Impact

A free agent at season's end, Ferguson was likely to be dealt to a team in need of left-handed relief help. The veteran has posted a 3.74 ERA in 45 outings this season, although his strikeout rate has plummeted to just 19.3%, well below his 26.4% career mark.

Caleb Ferguson allowed one hit and one walk in a scoreless inning during Tuesday's loss to the Rays.

Fantasy Impact

While he maintained a perfect ERA this season, his lack of strikeouts and a concerning strikeout-to-walk ratio suggest he may not be a reliable option for fantasy managers looking for saves or holds. With a WHIP of 1.25 and a FIP of 5.26, Ferguson's effectiveness could be in question moving forward, making him a risky add in deeper leagues.

The Pirates signed Caleb Ferguson to a one-year contract.

Fantasy Impact

Ferguson made 62 appearances in relief with the Yankees and Astros last season. He is likely to hold a middle relief role for Pittsburgh.
