Steven Matz

Steven Matz pitched a clean ninth inning, allowing one hit and no walks, picking up the save against the Orioles.

Fantasy Impact

Aroldis Chapman was unavailable after pitching 24 pitches on Wednesday. On the season, Matz has a 2.98 ERA and 1.10 WHIP across 66.1 innings. Since arriving in Boston, he has a 0.79 ERA and 0.70 WHIP in 11.1 innings. He won't get many, if any, more saves, but in saves plus holds leagues, he's worth a look.

The Red Sox added Steven Matz to their active roster.

Fantasy Impact

Matz was dealt to Boston ahead of Thursday's deadline. He'll join the Red Sox this weekend.

The Cardinals have traded Steven Matz to the Red Sox.

Fantasy Impact

Matz adds another middle relief arm in the Red Sox bullpen. Blaze Jordan was sent back to the Cardinals.

Steven Matz tossed 1 1/3 scoreless innings with one strikeout and one hit allowed in Tuesday’s win over the Orioles.

Fantasy Impact

Matz continues to thrive in relief, lowering his season ERA to 1.91 with a 0.94 WHIP through 33 innings. While he’s not in a high-leverage bullpen role, his command and efficiency make him a low-key ratio stabilizer in deep roto leagues. His upside remains limited without consistent holds or wins, but he’s proven trustworthy for managers looking to protect ERA/WHIP.

Steven Matz will start Game 2 of Wednesday's doubleheader against the Reds.

Fantasy Impact

Matz is making his return to the rotation after having one start skipped. He will start Game 2 of Wednesday's doubleheader after Miles Mikolas starts in Game 1.
