BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues
OWNED IN: 25% of leagues
ANALYSIS: Tampa Bay Rays starting pitcher Tyler Glasnow has been a solid fantasy option since coming over from Pittsburgh, but is coming off of a poor start. Maybe Glasnow had a bit of birthday hangover for his start against the Royals, because who walks three Royals? The good news is that he struck out eight and yielded just three runs over five frames, making for a 32/9 K/BB ratio over his 23 ⅓ innings as a Ray.
The electric righty owns a 3.24 FIP and 3.05 xFIP and his 9.9% walk rate in August is still under half of his 20.8% rate from July. There are few available pitchers that will offer the same kind of strikeout upside as Glasnow. Most people could use a boost to your K/9 in roto leagues as innings caps approach; Glasnow is just the guy to fill that need.
