4 years agoBoston Red Sox relief pitcher Matt Barnes was one out away from a save Monday night against the Toronto Blue Jays but gave up a two-out home run to Vladimir Guerrero Jr. that tied the game at one. He was fortunate to get a win after Rafael Devers walked it off in the bottom of the ninth. Barnes struck out three batters in his inning of work. Despite the blown save, Barnes remains one of the most valuable fantasy closers out there. He has 14 saves in 17 opportunities to go with his 2.86 ERA, 0.74 WHIP, and 50 strikeouts in 28 1/3 innings.--Doug Goldring

1 year agoVeteran relief pitcher Matt Barnes threw for a group of MLB scouts last week, according to Alex Speier of the Boston Globe. A hip injury cost Barnes the second half of his 2023 season, holding him to just 24 appearances with the Miami Marlins. He maintained a 4.15 FIP, 8.44 K/9, and 4.22 BB/9 while inducing a 49.3 GB%. Prior to last season, Barnes had been a staple of the Red Sox' bullpen. He recorded 24 saves back in 2021. The 33-year-old righty will presumably have to settle for a minor league deal but could compete for a roster spot during Spring Training.--Andersen Pickard - RotoBaller

2 years agoMiami Marlins right-hander Matt Barnes (hip) was moved to the 60-day injured list on Friday to make room for new reliever David Robertson, who the team acquired in a trade with the New York Mets. Barnes had left hip femoral acetabular impingement surgery on Tuesday and remains at home in Connecticut. He will do at-home rest and therapy for two to three weeks, and the recovery timeline before he can resume baseball activities is three months. Barnes' 2023 season is essentially over unless the Fish make a deep postseason run. The 33-year-old initially slipped on the mound in the middle of may against the San Francisco Giants when he suffered his hip impingement. He had a 5.48 ERA, 1.64 WHIP and 20 K's in 21 1/3 innings at the time of his injury.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller

2 years agoMiami Marlins relief pitcher Matt Barnes (hip) played catch on Monday in Miami and will be re-evaluated. He slipped on the mound in the middle of May in San Francisco, which led to his left-hip impingement. Barnes played through the injury, but it bothered him off and on for the next 10 days before he and the training staff decided he needed to take some time off to heal. The 33-year-old is slowly recovering, but he'll most likely need at least a couple minor-league rehab appearances before the Marlins decide to reinstate him from the injured list. Barnes currently has a 5.48 ERA (4.17 FIP), 1.64 WHIP, 10 walks and 20 strikeouts in 21 1/3 innings over 24 outings (one start) in his first year with the Fish in 2023.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller

2 years agoThe Boston Red Sox and Miami Marlins have reportedly made a deal, per a tweet from The Athletic's Ken Rosenthal on Monday morning. According to Rosenthal's tweet, Boston is trading reliever Matt Barnes to Miami for fellow relief pitcher Richard Bleier. Barnes pitched to a 4.31 ERA, a 3.87 FIP, 34 strikeouts, and 21 walks in 39.2 innings for Boston last season while adding eight saves and four holds. Bleier, meanwhile, turned in a 3.55 ERA and a 3.27 FIP in 50.2 innings for the Marlins, while adding 32 strikeouts, 10 walks, seven holds and a save. Of the duo, Barnes likely has more potential for save opportunities this coming season in Miami than Bleier does in Boston given Kenley Jansen's presence at the back end of the Red Sox bullpen.--Ben Rosener - RotoBaller
