Fantasy Impact

This outing marks a significant improvement for Cantillo, whose season ERA of 4.99 and WHIP of 1.17 suggest inconsistency. His ability to maintain a high strikeout rate (9.1 K/9) and a solid strikeout-to-walk ratio (3.10) was on full display, potentially signaling a turning point in his season. Fantasy managers should consider this performance indicative of Cantillo's upside, especially given his ability to limit hits (.260 BABIP) and manage games effectively, as evidenced by his performance against a competitive Rays lineup.

Joey Cantillo delivered a standout performance, allowing just one earned run on two hits while striking out 10 over seven innings in Monday's 5-3 win over the White Sox.

Fantasy Impact

This outing was a significant improvement for Cantillo, whose season has been marred by a high 5.96 ERA and inconsistencies across his previous starts. His ability to keep walks to zero and maintain control throughout the game suggests potential for better consistency moving forward. With a season WHIP of 1.25 and a K/9 of 8.8, performances like this could hint at an upward trend, making him a possible sleeper pick for fantasy managers looking for strikeout potential and innings depth.

Cantillo gets sent down after he was hit hard by the Yankees on Wednesday. He'll be available for another spot start if necessary later in the season.

Joey Cantillo struggled mightily, allowing seven earned runs on six hits and three walks while striking out five over four innings in Wednesday's 8-1 loss to the Yankees.

Fantasy Impact

This performance marks another rough outing for Cantillo, who has now failed to secure a win in his first four starts of the season, pushing his ERA to an unsettling 8.47. His WHIP has ballooned to 1.76, and with a strikeout rate of only 7.41 per nine innings, his ability to control games and limit damage seems to be waning. Fantasy managers should be wary of relying on Cantillo in their lineups, as his current form and underlying metrics suggest continued struggles. His high FIP indicates that his struggles are not solely due to bad luck, and his low strikeout-to-walk ratio only compounds the issue.

The Guardians have recalled Joey Cantillo from Triple-A Columbus.

Fantasy Impact

Cantillo was added as the 27th man for the doubleheader Friday and he will start in Game 1. He will likely be optioned back after the game.
