Availability
Louis Coleman and the Detroit Tigers have agreed on a Minor League contract for the upcoming 2019 season with an invitation to Spring Training. He will likely compete for a spot in the bullpen.
Fantasy Impact
Coleman struck out 41 batters last season over 51 1/3 innings while posting a 3.51 ERA and 1.31 WHIP. Unless he eventually closes games for the Tigers, Coleman's fantasy value remains minimal.
The Royals have placed reliever Louis Coleman on waivers as their bullpen takes shape for the start of the season. Coleman was out of options, so he must clear waivers before being assigned to AAA Omaha. He had a 3.55 ERA in 12 2/3 innings of work this spring.
Fantasy Impact
Coleman provided very little fantasy value as a middle reliever, so this move will not have a great impact.
Louis Coleman was dominant in relief striking out 5, including Matt Kemp, Justin Upton & Derek Norris in the same inning. He tossed 2 scoreless innings in the Royals' Cactus League victory over the Padres.
Fantasy Impact
With the depth of the stellar bullpen at the Royals' disposal, it is unlikely that Louis Coleman will provide many counting stats. In 2014 he recorded one hold and zero saves.
