Jesus Luzardo Looks Good In Rehab Start
6 months agoMiami Marlins left-hander Jesus Luzardo (elbow) looked good in a minor-league rehab start for Double-A Jupiter on Sunday, throwing 5 2/3 shutout innings while allowing one hit, walking one and striking out one on 67 pitches. His fastball averaged 95.1 mph and topped out at 96.4 mph. After the strong showing by Luzardo, it's a good bet that he'll come off the 15-day injured list this week to make a start this weekend in a tough matchup against the Philadelphia Phillies. The 26-year-old southpaw got off to a slow start to begin the year in 2024 with an 0-2 record, 6.58 ERA (5.08 FIP) and 1.42 WHIP with 13 walks and 27 strikeouts in 26 innings over his first five starts. Still, Luzardo should be stashed in the majority of fantasy formats.
