Jalen Beeks To Open, Yonny Chirinos Serving As Bulk Reliever
2 years agoTampa Bay Rays left-hander Jalen Beeks will once again serve as the team's opener on Tuesday against the New York Mets, with right-hander Yonny Chirinos expected to work the bulk innings in relief. Beeks has gone at least two innings in five of his outings this year, including in his last two appearances, but the 29-year-old southpaw won't be of any use as a DFS streamer as the opener. Chirinos will be making his fourth appearance after joining the Rays' rotation, but three of his four outings have been as the bulk reliever. The 29-year-old has a solid 2.22 ERA and 0.99 WHIP in 24 1/3 innings, but he's walked 10 and struck out only nine in his six appearances. Chirinos will be a shaky fantasy play against the Mets.
