10 months agoFree-agent right-hander
Julio Teheran has signed a minor-league deal with the Baltimore Orioles on Tuesday. Teheran will give the Orioles some starting pitching depth after it was recently announced that both left-hander
John Means (elbow) and
Tyler Wells (elbow) will miss the rest of the 2024 season. The 33-year-old Teheran opted out of his minor-league deal with the Chicago Cubs over the weekend and has quickly latched on with another organization. The 13-year-old MLB veteran allowed four earned runs on six hits (one homer) in 2 2/3 innings in his lone start for the New York Mets this year and shouldn't be counted on for much in fantasy if he makes any starts for the O's the rest of this season. Teheran has a career 3.85 ERA (4.38 FIP) and 1.22 WHIP with a 20.5% strikeout rate and 8.0 % walk rate in 1,470 2/3 innings pitched.

12 months agoThe New York Mets have designated pitcher
Julio Teheran for assignment on Tuesday, the team announced. Teheran signed a one-year $2.5 million deal with the Mets on April 5 after he failed to make the Baltimore Orioles roster. The right-hander made one start for New York allowing four runs on six hits across 2 and 2/3 innings. Following the outing, the Mets designated the right-hander for assignment, and in his spot, New York called up right-handed pitcher Dedniel Núñez.

12 months agoThe New York Mets signed free-agent right-hander
Julio Teheran to a major-league deal on Wednesday, and club officials believe that he'll be capable of starting Monday's series opener against the division-rival Atlanta Braves. With
Kodai Senga (shoulder) and
Tylor Megill (shoulder) both on the injured list with shoulder injuries, the Mets are desperate for rotation help in the early going. The 33-year-old Teheran was competing for a roster spot with the Baltimore Orioles, so apparently he's stretched out enough to come right in and make a start for the Mets early next week. He had a 4.40 ERA and 1.13 WHIP in 71 2/3 innings for the Milwaukee Brewers last year but should be avoided in all fantasy formats for what is expected to be his first start of 2024 against the Braves.

12 months agoThe New York Mets are open to external options to bolster their starting rotation and have renewed talks with free-agent veteran right-hander
Julio Teheran, according to league sources. The Mets finished second to the Baltimore Orioles on Teheran in spring training, but he recently opted out of his contract with the O's and is available again after not making their Opening Day rotation. The 33-year-old outperformed expectations in 2023 in 14 appearances (11 starts) with the Milwaukee Brewers, going 3-5 with a 4.40 ERA (4.93 FIP) and 1.13 WHIP with 13 walks and 50 strikeouts in 71 2/3 innings. Mets ace
Kodai Senga (shoulder) started the year on the injured list, and the Mets added
Tylor Megill (shoulder) to the IL, so they are definitely in need of rotation help early on. Teheran would only be worth adding in NL-only leagues if he lands in the Big Apple.
