Matt Brash Scheduled To Throw Bullpen On Saturday
3 days agoAccording to Ryan Divish of the Seattle Times, Mariners relief pitcher Matt Brash (elbow) is scheduled to throw a bullpen on Saturday. Brash has not returned to the mound since undergoing an internal brace procedure last May. He was unable to pitch at all during the 2024 campaign. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor the 26-year-old's status as he is not expected to be ready for the start of the regular season. During the 2023 campaign, Brash tallied 25 holds, operating as the setup man for Andres Munoz. Across 70 2/3 innings, the hard-throwing right-hander posted a 3.06 ERA and a 1.33 WHIP. He tallied an impressive 107 punchouts (34.7 percent strikeout rate) and generated a stellar 4.8 percent barrel rate. When Brash returns, he should be viewed as a top option in holds leagues as he will likely return to his eighth-inning high-leverage role.
