Fantasy Baseball SP Roundup 7/2: Hurst Trap
Pitcher List • • sports
Key Points:
- Hurston Waldrep (ATL) pitched 5.1 innings against STL, allowing 3 runs with moderate strikeout and whiff rates; his sinker/cutter combo shows potential but currently lacks high upside.
- Bryce Miller (SEA) delivered a dominant 7-inning shutout with 8 strikeouts and impressive command of his splitter and sweeper, reinforcing his status as a top-tier starter.
- Ian Seymour (TBR) impressed with 6 innings, 1 run allowed, and a strong performance from his sweeper, though control remains a concern; he could be a viable option against weaker offenses.
- Nathan Eovaldi (TEX) showed good stuff over 5 innings with 9 strikeouts but gave up 3 runs including two unexpected home runs, raising questions about his pitch selection and control.
- Several pitchers struggled notably, including Dustin May (STL) with 5 runs allowed in under an inning, Michael Lorenzen (COL) with poor control and velocity, and Roki Sasaki (LAD) surrendering 6 runs over 3 innings due to poor location.
