Detroit Tigers starting pitcherJack Flaherty(1-4) picked up a quality start and the loss Thursday night, going 6 1/3 innings, allowing three runs on seven hits with one walk and seven strikeouts in a 9-1 loss to the Toronto Blue Jays. The Tigers starter cruised through six innings before being chased after allowing a two-run home run toDaulton Varsho. That was the deciding blow, as the Tigers couldn't muster up any run-support for Flaherty. Run support has been almost nonexistent for Flaherty in his starts,which is whyhe only has one victory on the season. He currently has a 3.84 ERA on the season and ranks seventh in the league in strikeouts. There's no doubt Flaherty has found a home in Detroit and should be in your fantasy lineup every week despite the lack of wins. He will look to pick up his second win against the Pittsburgh Pirates on Wednesday.
Detroit Tigers starting pitcher Jack Flaherty put together a brilliant performance against the St. Louis Cardinals on Tuesday. The right-hander recorded a career-high 14 strikeouts over 6 2/3 scoreless innings during Tuesday's no-decision. Flaherty struck out seven straight batters to open up the contest. Sadly for Flaherty, the Tigers bullpen coughed up the lead in the ninth inning, which cost him his first victory of the season. He'll take a 4.00 ERA, 1.03 WHIP, and 50/5 K/BB into his next start against the Cleveland Guardians. Flaherty's strong start to the season has made him an attractive early-season waiver-wire pickup.
Detroit Tigers right-hander Jack Flaherty will be looking for some positive regression to kick in on Wednesday in a road tilt with the Tampa Bay Rays. The 28-year-old has posted a 4.44 ERA through his first four starts in a Tigers uniform but his underlying numbers suggest he has been much better than that. Flaherty has also worked to a 2.90 xFIP, 2.74 SIERA, and a big-time 25.2% K-BB% with a 29.1% K%, as well. He has walked just 3.9% of the batters he has faced and has generated whiffs at a career-best 15.1% clip, a figure that ranks in the league's 95th percentile. He will take on a Rays team that is tied for 23rd with a .299 wOBA and 18th with a 23.1% K% against right-handed pitching on the season.
Detroit Tigers right-hander Jack Flaherty looked good in his first start with the Tigers on Sunday, allowing just one earned run on four hits (one homer) while walking none and striking out seven in six innings pitched to pick up a no-decision in Detroit's eventual 3-2 victory on the road. Korey Lee's solo home run was the only blemish on Flaherty's line. The 28-year-old went 8-9 last year with a 4.99 ERA (4.36 FIP) and 1.58 WHIP with 66 walks and 148 strikeouts in 144 1/3 innings over 29 appearances (27 starts) for the St. Louis Cardinals and Baltimore Orioles. Injuries and control problems have become an issue for Flaherty in recent seasons, but he still has the stuff to help fantasy managers in juicy matchups like the one he had on Sunday versus Chicago. He has another one coming up in his next scheduled start against the Oakland Athletics.
Detroit Tigers starting pitcher Jack Flaherty got roughed up in his third outing of the Grapefruit League against the New York Yankees. Over 1 2/3 innings, the offseason addition allowed three hits, four runs, three walks and struck out three. The 28-year-old was once one the better starting pitchers in the league, but injuries have derailed his career over the past three seasons. The move to Comerica Park should benefit the righty, but he still has a lot to prove to earn a spot in most formats at the moment. For now, he is watch-list candidate and that's solely based on previous success in the big leagues.
