Roster %
Eligibility
The Guardians optioned Xzavion Curry to Triple-A.
Fantasy Impact
Curry gets sent down with Cleveland activating Eli Morgan from the injured list.
Xzavion Curry endured a rough outing, allowing six earned runs on six hits and two walks while striking out three over 3.1 innings in Monday's 8-6 loss to the Rockies.
Fantasy Impact
This performance further inflates his already elevated ERA to 5.68 and does little to instill confidence in fantasy managers. With a WHIP now standing at 1.42 and a low strikeout rate of 5.7 K/9, Curry's role as a viable fantasy starter is increasingly questionable. His inability to limit base runners and prevent runs significantly hampers his value in all formats.
Xzavion Curry will start for the Guardians on Tuesday against the Mets.
Fantasy Impact
Curry will start with Carlos Carrasco scratched. It will be his second start of the season after throwing five scoreless innings against the Red Sox in April.
Xzavion Curry delivered a stellar performance, tossing five scoreless innings while allowing just two hits and one walk, striking out three in a 6-0 victory over the Red Sox.
Fantasy Impact
This outing was a display of efficiency and control, as evidenced by his low pitch count and minimal baserunners. Fantasy managers should monitor his role in the Guardians' rotation and consider him a viable option, especially in deeper leagues or as a streaming choice against favorable matchups.
Xzavion Curry (illness) is expected to be activated from the IL and start Monday.
Fantasy Impact
Curry and Ben Lively will both be activated from the injured list this week and start against Boston. Curry could work his way into the five man rotation depending on his results against Boston.
