Eligibility
Charlie Morton told reporters that his finger is fine and he’s healthy heading into the 2024 season.
Fantasy Impact
Morton was sidelined during the postseason last year due to inflammation in his right index finger. He should find his way back in the middle of the starting rotation for the Braves this season.
The Braves exercised their $20 million team option on SP Charlie Morton.
Fantasy Impact
Morton will return to the Braves after posting a 3.64 ERA and 183 strikeouts last season. The 40-year-old could be entering his final MLB season and should provide the Braves with yet another solid middle of the rotation option for the 2024 season.
In the Braves' 3-1 loss to the Dodgers, Morton lasted just four innings, surrendering six hits and three walks, resulting in two earned runs.
Fantasy Impact
With a 3.32 ERA and 1.38 WHIP on the season, this disappointing performance raises concerns about his consistency and reliability moving forward.
With a solid six innings pitched, only allowing three hits and two walks, Morton continues his strong season, boasting a 3.29 ERA, 1.36 WHIP, and an impressive 10.1 K/9 rate.
Fantasy Impact
Fantasy owners can rely on Morton for consistent production down the stretch.
Charlie Morton turned in a dominant performance against the Mets on Wednesday, tossing seven shutout innings while allowing just two hits and one walk with 11 strikeouts.
Fantasy Impact
Morton's strong outing further solidifies his fantasy value, as he now boasts a 3.37 ERA, a 1.38 WHIP, and a stellar 10.0 K/9 rate through 25 starts this season. With a solid track record and the ability to miss bats, Morton remains a reliable fantasy option moving forward.
