Ryne Stanek Viewed As Setup Man
16 seconds agoNew York Mets relief pitcher Ryne Stanek is viewed as a setup man. Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reported that Stanek is viewed as the right-handed setup man while A.J. Minter is viewed as the left-handed setup pitcher. Edwin Diaz is expected to see the vast majority of save opportunities. Last season, Stanek spent time with the Seattle Mariners and Mets. Across 55 1/3 innings, the 33-year-old posted a 4.88 ERA with a 1.32 WHIP. He tallied an impressive 67 punchouts but held a poor 10.2 percent walk rate. Across this stint, he tallied 18 holds. However, during his 16 1/3 innings in Queens, Stanek posted a high 6.06 ERA with a 1.29 WHIP. Fantasy managers in holds leagues should monitor his status during spring training as he could be a viable target in these leagues, as he would likely enter the game in the eighth innings when facing right-handed hitters.
