Clayton Beeter's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

New York Yankees pitching prospect Clayton Beeter tallied a season-high of nine strikeouts to earn his third victory of the season in Triple-A. This was his best start of the season, putting the 25-year-old in a good opportunity to return to the major leagues. Beeter was named to the Yankees Opening Day Roster but only threw one inning while with the major league team this season before returning to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. However, after being sent back down to Triple-A, Beeter has posted a strong 2.74 ERA, 1.22 WHIP, and 35 punchouts across 23 innings. The former Texas Tech Red Raider should be a name to monitor in deeper AL-only formats, as he could see opportunities later in the summer to start games for the Yankees.

New York Yankees rookie right-hander Clayton Beeter said he was informed that he's made the team's Opening Day roster out of camp. But with Luis Gil earning the No. 5 starting rotation spot to open the year, Beeter will open his first MLB campaign pitching out of New York's bullpen as a long reliever, which won't give him any real fantasy appeal. The 25-year-old could fill in for a spot start here or there early on, but there's a good chance he'll eventually head back to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre for more minor-league seasoning. The former second-round pick in 2020 by the Los Angeles Dodgers out of Texas Tech went 9-7 for Double-A Somerset and Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, posting a 3.62 ERA and 1.37 WHIP with 75 walks and 165 strikeouts in 131 2/3 innings pitched.
