Joey Estes's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Oakland Athletics starting pitcher Joey Estes suffered a tough loss on Tuesday versus the Tampa Bay Rays. Estes earned a quality start with 7 2/3 innings of one-run ball. He also allowed three hits, one walk and struck out five on the evening. Unfortunately for Estes, one of those hits was a solo home run to Jose Siri and that would help the Rays win 1-0. Despite the loss, Estes performed very well in this outing. Estes is now 5-6 on the season with a 4.44 ERA in 18 games (17 starts), but has performed better in August with a 3.00 ERA in four starts. Despite his recent success, he doesn't offer much in the strikeout or win department, making him nothing more than a streamer in very favorable matchups. With his next start versus the Milwaukee Brewers on Sunday, Estes can be avoided.

Oakland Athletics starting pitcher Joey Estes authored a complete-game shutout with four strikeouts in Wednesday's masterful showing against the division-rival Los Angeles Angels. Estes came out of nowhere with this effort, striking out Angels outfielder Taylor Ward to complete the shutout on just 92 pitches for his third win of the year on Wednesday. The 22-year-old right-hander has been unpredictable at times in 2024, but he's got a modest 4.39 ERA, 1.12 WHIP, and 43:13 K:BB through 55 1/3 innings (10 starts) overall for the A's. He'll face a more difficult assignment against the Boston Red Sox at Fenway Park in his next projected start on Tuesday, so fantasy managers should think twice before picking up Estes from waiver wires and starting him in a less favorable environment.

Oakland Athletics starting pitcher Joey Estes struck out eight batters over 5 2/3 innings in his start against the Los Angeles Angels on Wednesday afternoon, but he was saddled with his third loss of the year after giving up two runs on three hits and two walks. Estes also notably put out Angels outfielder Kevin Pillar to escape a bases-loaded jam in the first inning. The 22-year-old right-hander will carry a 5.24 ERA, 1.21 WHIP, and 39:12 K:BB through 46 1/3 frames into his next scheduled start, which lines up sometime during next week's series at home against these same division-rival Angels. Fantasy managers can do a lot better on waiver wires.
