Logan Webb

Logan Webb continued being MLB's Mr. GroundBall in 2024, boasting a 57.2% ground ball rate while throwing 204 2/3 innings. Webb's durability and compiled innings are his claim to fantasy relevancy, as his 20.5% strikeout rate requires volume to have a positive impact. Of note, his 3.41 ERA featured some luck with an xERA of 4.31, and his WHIP jumped to 1.23 from 1.07. He has double-digit wins in each of the last two years, which again is more of a product of his innings than anything else. Webb offers solid SP3 numbers, but it is prudent not to expect more than he has been since 2022.

Logan Webb Stumbles, Giants Fall to Orioles

Logan Webb allowed three earned runs on four hits and two walks while striking out eight over five innings in Thursday's 5-3 loss to the Orioles.

Fantasy Impact

Despite a decent strikeout count, Webb couldn't manage to extend his outing, which ultimately contributed to the Giants' defeat. His season ERA slightly increased to 3.58, reflecting a minor setback in what has been a solid campaign. Webb's performance today, characterized by a higher than usual number of strikeouts but a shorter outing, might raise concerns about his stamina as the season winds down. However, his overall strong ratios and consistent season performance should keep him in good standing in fantasy rotations.
