Los Angeles Angels starting pitcher Janson Junk (0-1) wasn't a factor in the decision Wednesday night during the 12-inning affair with the Houston Astros. He did struggle, though, pitching four innings, allowing three runs, one walk, two home runs, and he added a strikeout in the eventual 9-5 loss. Junk has only made three starts on the season and has a 3.75 ERA over 12 innings, although with an unimpressive 9.8 K%. Before his call-up, he was pitching well in Double-A with a 2.81 ERA and 97 strikeouts across 93 innings. Fantasy managers should keep him on the waiver wire for the remainder of the season with his low inning totals.--Spencer Seguin

Miami Marlins right-handed pitcher Janson Junk could earn a spot in the starting rotation, with Ryan Weathers (forearm) set to miss the start of the campaign. The 29-year-old has only logged 40 innings at the MLB level throughout his career. Across this stint, the right-hander has held a high 6.75 ERA with a 1.78 WHIP. He has tallied 34 punchouts and held an 8.3 percent walk rate. During spring training, Junk has logged 10 1/3 innings to the tune of a 5.23 ERA with a solid 1.06 WHIP. Junk has struck out 10 batters and served up four free passes. Across 276 1/3 career frames at the Triple-A level, the Seattle product has held a 4.23 ERA with a 1.32 WHIP. Fantasy managers should expect Junk to operate as the No. 5 option in the rotation and carry minimal fantasy value, given his weak control and low strikeout upside.--Andy Smith - RotoBaller

According to the team, the Miami Marlins have signed right-handed pitcher Janson Junk to a minor-league contract. He is also being invited to spring training. Junk has only seen limited work in the majors over the past three seasons. Last summer, Junk logged just eight innings in the majors and held a 14.63 ERA with a 3.25 WHIP. During the 2023 season, he logged seven 1/3 innings of work and allowed four earned runs. Last season, he pitched 60 1/3 innings at the Triple-A level and held a 3.58 ERA with a 1.28 WHIP. He struck out 54 batters and served up 21 free passes. Fantasy managers should expect Junk to compete for a low-leverage role in the Miami bullpen during spring training. However, given his struggles last season, he will likely open the season with Triple-A Jacksonville.--Andy Smith - RotoBaller

The Milwaukee Brewers acquired pitcher Janson Junk, along with fellow hurlers Elvis Peguero and Adam Seminaris, on Tuesday night in a trade that sent outfielder Hunter Renfroe to the Los Angeles Angels. Junk made three appearances for the Angels last season, two of which were starts. He pitched to a 6.48 ERA and a 3.11 FIP in 8.1 innings. The 26-year-old will give the Brewers some additional pitching depth in 2023, whether it be in the rotation or in the bullpen. Milwaukee's current rotation options include Corbin Burnes, Brandon Woodruff, Freddy Peralta, Adrian Houser, Eric Lauer, and Aaron Ashby.--Ben Rosener - RotoBaller

Los Angeles Angels reliever Janson Junk has been optioned to Triple-A Salt Lake on Saturday. The 26-year-old right-hander owns a rough 6.48 ERA, 1.56 WHIP, and 11:3 K/BB ratio over 8 1/3 innings (three games, two starts). Reliever Mike Mayers had his contract purchased and will join the Angels' bullpen in a corresponding move.--Jon Mathisen - RotoBaller
