Taylor Jungmann (SP, MIL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues

OWNED IN: 35% of Fleaflicker Leagues

ANALYSIS: Just when you thought the Milwaukee Brewers cupboards were empty after Jimmy Nelson's callup late last year, here comes Taylor Jungmann to keep hope alive.

Even though this is a lost year for the Brewers, Jungmann's first season in Milwaukee has been a special one. His 2.14 ERA and 1.05 WHIP have been impressive and he has solidified his place in the long term plans for Milwaukee. Even though his K/9 has dropped to 7.02 from his highest at 8.94, the BB/9 is also down considerably from 4.72 to a pleasant 2.90.

Jungmann's BABIP has slowly dipped over his time in the minors, and should level off around .260, while his FIP has also taken positive strides and currently sits at 3.22 for 2015.

Jungmann is another pitcher that relies heavily on the fastball, throwing it 72% of the time. Until he can command his curveball or changeup, he will be relying on his efficient fastball. That fact brings about some concerns, especially long term, if he fails to develop another top-notch pitch. But for now, Jungmann has delivered 6 QS and has given up more than 2 ER only once which took place on his June 19th start at Colorado.

It looks like the Brewers have found themselves another starter, to help get them eventually get back to being an NL contender. Make him a part of your fantasy baseball team by adding him off the waiver wire, and put yourself in a better position.
