Ryne Nelson

Ryne Nelson endured another tough outing, allowing four earned runs on five hits and two walks while striking out three over six innings in Wednesday's 6-1 loss to the Rangers.

This performance further inflates his already bloated ERA to 6.02 and WHIP to 1.76 for the season, numbers that are far from ideal for fantasy managers. With a K/9 of just 6.9 and a high BABIP of .384, it's clear that Nelson is struggling to miss bats and is also suffering from some bad luck on balls in play. His 4.37 FIP suggests a slight improvement could be on the horizon, but fantasy managers should be wary of using Nelson in their lineups until he shows signs of substantial improvement.

Ryne Nelson delivered a strong performance on Wednesday, tossing five scoreless innings in a 6-0 victory over the Dodgers.

He allowed five hits and three walks while striking out five. Despite entering the game with a bloated 6.03 ERA and a 1.84 WHIP from his previous outings, this start could be a turning point for Nelson. His ability to keep runs off the board against a competitive team, despite a high season-long BABIP of .408, suggests potential for improvement. Fantasy managers should keep an eye on Nelson, as performances like this could hint at a trend towards better control and effectiveness, making him a speculative add or hold in deeper leagues.

Diamondbacks manager Torey Lovullo said Ryne Nelson will not start on Wednesday against the Dodgers.

Lovullo added that roster movement is coming, so it is possible Nelson is optioned. He also suggested the possibility of an opener for Wednesday's game.

Ryne Nelson endured a tough outing, surrendering eight earned runs on 11 hits and one walk while striking out four over four innings in Friday's 13-0 loss to the Tigers.

Fantasy Impact

This performance inflates his already elevated ERA to 7.06 and WHIP to 1.88, signaling ongoing struggles on the mound. His season's strikeout rate (7.1 K/9) and high BABIP (.415) suggest some bad luck but also point to a lack of dominance in his pitching. Fantasy managers should be wary of relying on Nelson in their rotations, as his current form and underlying metrics do not forecast a turnaround soon. His high FIP (4.28) further underscores the challenges he faces in achieving fantasy relevance.

Ryne Nelson struggled in Saturday's matchup, allowing three earned runs on ten hits while striking out three over 4 2/3 innings in a 5-4 loss to the Orioles.

Fantasy Impact

The right-hander didn't issue any walks, which is a small silver lining in an otherwise disappointing outing. Nelson's performance this season has been less than stellar, marked by a bloated 5.33 ERA and 1.70 WHIP over six starts. His inability to limit hits, as evidenced by a high .379 BABIP, continues to hamper his effectiveness. While his decent strikeout-to-walk ratio suggests some underlying skills, his low strikeout rate (6.8 K/9) limits his appeal in fantasy formats that heavily reward strikeouts. Moving forward, fantasy managers should be cautious with Nelson, considering him more of a matchup-dependent option rather than a regular starter.
