Cole Irvin

The Twins designated Cole Irvin for assignment.

Fantasy Impact

Irvin had been claimed off waivers by Minnesota from the Orioles. He will hit the waiver wire in the final week of the regular season.

Cole Irvin had a modest showing in Monday's 13-3 victory over the White Sox, pitching three innings where he allowed one earned run on two hits, no walks, and struck out two.

Fantasy Impact

This performance was somewhat typical of his season, characterized by a high ERA of 4.74 and a WHIP of 1.40. Despite the Orioles' offensive explosion, Irvin's short outing and minimal impact on strikeouts (6.2 K/9) continue to limit his appeal in fantasy formats that prioritize pitching dominance. His 4.56 FIP suggests some underlying issues remain unaddressed, making him a risky play in all but the deepest of leagues.

Cole Irvin had a lackluster performance on Wednesday, allowing two earned runs on five hits and two walks while striking out two over 4.1 innings in the Orioles' 4-3 loss to the Mets.

Fantasy Impact

This outing did little to reassure fantasy managers, as Irvin's season ERA nudged up to 4.82, and his WHIP remained elevated at 1.41. Given his modest strikeout rate of 6.2 K/9 and a FIP of 4.58 that suggests his struggles are somewhat deserved, Irvin's fantasy relevance continues to wane. His inability to work deep into games, coupled with a middling strikeout-to-walk ratio, makes him a risky play in all but the deepest of leagues.

Cole Irvin will start for the Orioles on Wednesday against the Mets.

Fantasy Impact

Irvin will make a spot start for Baltimore.

The Orioles sent Cole Irvin outright to Triple-A Norfolk.

Fantasy Impact

Irvin went unclaimed on waivers after he was designated for assignment. He'll remain in the Orioles organization.
