Miami Marlins left-hander Jesus Luzardo (elbow) was scratched from his scheduled start on Friday versus the Washington Nationals and will undergo testing for left-elbow discomfort, according to the team. The Marlins can ill-afford another injury to one of their starting pitchers, but the good news is they should be getting left-hander Braxton Garrett (shoulder) back soon. For now, fantasy managers that have the 26-year-old Luzardo rostered must keep him stashed and hope for the best. It's more bad news for a pitcher that has gotten off to a tough start in 2024, as he's posted a 6.58 ERA and 1.42 WHIP with 27 strikeouts and 13 walks in five starts covering 26 innings. In Luzardo's place, pitching prospect Anthony Maldonado will make the spot start against the Nats.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller

Philadelphia Phillies starting pitcher Jesus Luzardo was excellent on Sunday, tossing seven innings of two-run ball against the Miami Marlins in a 7-5 loss. Luzardo allowed two runs (one earned) on eight hits and had an impressive 7:0 K:BB ratio in this one. The 27-year-old lefty has been very good for the Phillies so far this season, allowing three runs or less and going five-plus innings in each of his five starts. He now holds a 2.08 ERA and 1.09 WHIP with 36 strikeouts over 30 ⅓ IP. He is a must-start pitcher in all fantasy formats at this point.--Matt Garon - RotoBaller

Philadelphia Phillies starting pitcher Jesus Luzardo tossed seven shutout frames en route to handing the Los Angeles Dodgers their first loss of the regular season. In this outing, Luzardo tallied eight punchouts and allowed just two hits and two walks. He ran into a little trouble during the seventh innings but was able to strikeout Kike Hernandez with runners in scoring in position to keep the door shut. This was another impressive outing for the southpaw as he tossed five innings of two-run ball with 11 punchouts during his first start. After batting injuries last season and being limited to just 66 2/3 innings, the 27-year-old appears healthy and is once again flashing high strikeout upside. Luzardo remains a strong starting pitcher in all formats as he looks to stay hot in his next start, against the Atlanta Braves.--Andy Smith - RotoBaller

Philadelphia Phillies starting pitcher Jesus Luzardo tallied 11 strikeouts across five innings of two-run ball en route to earning the victory over the Washington Nationals on Saturday. He allowed two hits, two walks, and two runs. Most of his damage came in the second frame when backstop Keibert Ruiz launched a two-run shot. This was an impressive Philadelphia debut for Luzardo as he battled numerous injuries last season. He was only able to log 66 1/3 innings of work and held a high 5.00 ERA with a 1.25 WHIP. He enjoyed a strong campaign in 2023 when he tallied 208 strikeouts across 178 2/3 innings and posted a 3.58 ERA and a 1.21 WHIP. Given his impressive debut and high strikeout upside, he is worth adding in shallow formats. However, he does have a tough task ahead of him, facing the Los Angeles Dodgers on Friday evening.--Andy Smith - RotoBaller

Philadelphia Phillies left-hander Jesus Luzardo (back, elbow), who was acquired from the Miami Marlins this offseason, said he feels 100 percent after missing time with left-elbow tightness and not pitching after June 16 due to a stress reaction in his lower back. 2024 was a tough year for the lefty, but he did have a 3.48 ERA and 328 strikeouts in 279 innings in 2022 and 2023 with Miami. He's optimistic that his back issues are behind him as the 27-year-old southpaw embarks on his first season in Philly. Luzardo had a rough 5.00 ERA and made only 12 starts for the Fish this past season because of his injuries, but if he can stay healthy in 2025, he'll give the Phillies the deepest starting rotation in the sport. However, with only one season with 20 starts in the big leagues, Luzardo remains a pretty big fantasy risk on draft day.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
