Eligibility
The Angels optioned Reid Detmers to Triple-A Salt Lake.
Fantasy Impact
Detmers has posted a 6.14 ERA across 12 starts this season. He allowed five runs over 3 2/3 innings in his latest start against the Mariners on Saturday. It is not clear who will take the spot of Detmers in the Angels starting rotation.
Reid Detmers allowed three runs on four hits over five innings on Sunday against the Guardians.
Fantasy Impact
Detmers added eight strikeouts, but also four walks. He ran into some trouble in the sixth inning after a strong five frames. He is scheduled to face the Mariners next.
Reid Detmers had a rough outing, allowing six earned runs on eight hits and one walk while striking out three over four innings in Monday's 9-7 victory over the Astros.
Fantasy Impact
Despite the Angels' win, Detmers's performance was less than stellar, contributing to an already inflated season ERA of 5.80 and a WHIP of 1.42. His inability to go deep into the game while surrendering a high number of hits continues to be a concern. Fantasy managers should be wary of his high ERA and WHIP, which could be detrimental to their team's pitching stats.
Reid Detmers allowed four earned runs on eight hits and two walks while striking out seven over five innings in Tuesday's 7-6 loss to the Cardinals.
Fantasy Impact
This outing nudged Detmers' ERA up to 5.19 and WHIP to 1.35 for the season, which continues to paint a picture of inconsistency for fantasy managers. Despite a solid 10.0 K/9 rate and a decent 3.11 strikeout-to-walk ratio, Detmers' susceptibility to hits and runs is a growing concern. His FIP at 3.97 suggests some bad luck with a .328 BABIP, indicating potential for improvement. However, until he shows more consistency, he remains a risky play in most fantasy formats.
Reid Detmers struggled mightily in Saturday's 7-1 loss to the Cleveland Guardians, surrendering seven earned runs on five hits and four walks while striking out seven over 5 2/3 innings.
Fantasy Impact
This performance marks a significant setback for Detmers, who had maintained a respectable 4.24 ERA and 1.21 WHIP coming into the game. The seven earned runs allowed have inflated his ERA, overshadowing his solid 9.8 K/9 rate and 3.14 strikeout-to-walk ratio for the season. Fantasy managers should be cautious, as inconsistency, particularly in control as evidenced by his four walks, could lead to more volatile outings. While his strikeout ability remains appealing, this start is a reminder of the risks involved in deploying Detmers in fantasy lineups.
