BALLER MOVE: Add in 12 + Team Leagues
OWNED IN: 15% of Fleaflicker leagues
ANALYSIS: Whitley was a popular stream this weekend and didn’t deliver for fantasy players, going 5.2 innings with five runs including three long balls vs Baltimore. Because of this I expect his ownership levels to drop, which only benefits those looking for pitching help. Remember, the Orioles are not an easy matchup. Whitley still owns a 3.06 ERA, 1.19 WHIP and 16/3 K/BB ratio over 17 2/3 innings. He has a successful track record in the minors but doesn’t blow hitters away as evident by his career .338 BABIP, which means I can’t recommend him as an immediate add in shallow leagues. I am a big fan of his matchup Thursday at Tampa and think he’s a solid streaming option, but if he performs well I’d try and sell high in deep leagues.
