Expert Note
View More NotesMusgrove started out the season hot but cratered in May, pitching to an 8.10 ERA in the month. His overall numbers (4.44 ERA, 1.22 WHIP) won't blow you away, but Musgrove saw major velocity gains on his fastball and cutter over the second half of the season. Wins will always be an issue but if he can continue to build on his velocity increases, he could find his way into being a back-end starter for your fantasy team.

Joe Musgrove (11-12) picked up the win Thursday against the Cubs, allowing three runs on three hits over six innings, striking out eight and walking two.
Fantasy Impact
It was a rocky 2019 for Musgrove, but he ended on a positive note. He'll need to be more consistent moving forward to be considered a reliable fantasy option, but hopefully he can build on his 2019 season hype. He finishes with a 4.44 ERA, 1.22 WHIP, and 157 strikeouts in 170.1 innings.
