Johnny Cueto News
The Texas Rangers have signed starting pitcher Johnny Cueto to a minor-league contract on Tuesday. The 38-year-old lands a deal with the defending World Series champions after a rough year with the Miami Marlins. Cueto posted a 6.02 ERA, 1.26 WHIP, and a 39/15 K/BB ratio over 52 1/3 innings with the Marlins last season. It's uncertain what Cueto still has left in the tank, but he'll at least be additional depth for the organization. Cueto has plenty of experience but is unlikely to offer any kind of fantasy value.
Miami Marlins right-hander Johnny Cueto wasn't very effective in a no-decision on Friday night in an eventual 9-6 win over the visiting Atlanta Braves. Cueto allowed three earned runs on seven hits (one homer) while walking none and striking out two in only four innings of work. The veteran 37-year-old Dominican hurler has only appeared in 10 games (nine starts) for the Fish in 2023 and hasn't been very good. And since he returned from the injured list on Sept. 2, he's given up 11 earned runs on 17 hits (four homers) while walking five and striking out only nine in 12 2/3 innings over three starts. Cueto has a 6.20 season ERA and 1.29 WHIP and has very little fantasy upside at this point in his career.
Miami Marlins starting pitcher Johnny Cueto (illness) is expected to start on Saturday against the Washington Nationals. Cueto was placed on the 15-day injured list back on August 21 with a viral infection, and although he hasn't been officially activated yet, beat writer Jordan McPherson stated that the veteran hurler is starting on Saturday. It's been a poor season so far for the 37-year-old as he owns a lackluster 5.57 ERA, 1.11 WHIP, and 26:9 K/BB ratio over 32 1/3 innings (seven games, six appearances). His low WHIP and inflated ERA suggest he's had some bad luck so far but fantasy managers should avoid streaming him for this one. Miami is in the thick of the heated NL Wild Card race so any positive signs from Cueto would be big down the stretch.
