Fantasy Impact

Lockett is dealing with lower back discomfort and was placed on the injured list Monday. He owned a 8.34 ERA, 1.72 WHIP and 16:6 K:BB across 22 2/3 innings in 2019.

Mets pitcher Walker Lockett tossed three scoreless innings against the Marlins on Monday, striking out two while allowing three hits.

Fantasy Impact

Lockett did not have much success in the big leagues last season, pitching to an 8.34 ERA over 22 2/3 innings. He had a much better time in Triple-A but is unlikely to see a lot of time with the big league club this season unless the Mets suffer a number of injuries.

Mets pitcher Walker Lockett allowed four earned runs on eight hits and two walks while striking out four over 4 2/3 innings in a no-decision against the Marlins on Monday.

Fantasy Impact

Lockett was recalled from the minors as the 26th man for Monday's doubleheader, and he is likely to head back to the minor leagues tomorrow. He has a 7.79 ERA on the season through four starts.

Mets starter Walker Lockett allowed one earned run on five hits and no walks while striking out three over five innings in a win over the San Francisco Giants.

Fantasy Impact

Lockett was recalled from Triple-A Syracuse before Saturday's start and fared much better than he had in his previous two appearances for the Mets. He offers very little upside and a lot of risk, so his fantasy value is minimal even if he does end up making another start.
