Expert Note
View More NotesSpencer Strider's 2025 was a clear step back from his 2022-23 dominance, with sharp declines in strikeout rate (24.3% from elite 36%+ levels), rising hard-hit rate (42.6%), and a career-worst 4.45 ERA that mirrored weaker underlying command. While velocity and bat-missing ability weren't lost entirely, his reduced K/BB profile and elevated damage on contact capped his fantasy ceiling. The 2026 projections still view Strider as a high-strikeout arm, but no longer in a tier of his own, reflecting durability concerns and a thinner margin for error. A partial rebound in strikeouts could still make him a strong SP2 rather than the automatic ace he once was.

Spencer Strider (elbow) is not expected to pitch for the Braves again this season.
Fantasy Impact
Strider has been trying to work his way back from an elbow injury that has kept him on the shelf since the middle of June. Manager Walt Weiss made it known Friday, however, that he does not expect Strider to return this season. Strider will aim for spring training next year.
