Andrew Cashner Stats

The Baltimore Orioles are considering starting pitcher Andrew Cashner as they look for a veteran presence in their rotation this offseason. Cashner made 17 starts for the O's in 2019 before being traded to the Red Sox, where he fell apart in 25 outings (six starts) to close out the season. The veteran right-hander was solid for Baltimore, though, going 9-3 with a 3.83 ERA and 1.19 WHIP while striking out 66 and walking 29 in 96 1/3 innings. We'd expect more of his production in his time with Boston moving forward than his fortunate line in the first half with Baltimore moving forward. Cashner can have decent outings in the right matchups, but he's walking a tight rope missing very few bats these days. He'd be an option to avoid in fantasy if he returns to the Orioles rotation.

Boston Red Sox starting pitcher Andrew Cashner flipped roles on Tuesday, coming in to close out a 7-6 victory over the Cleveland Indians. Cashner allowed a hit and struck out two in the appearance. Manager Alex Cora has been getting crafty with his bullpen usage recently, most notably with Nathan Eovaldi working exclusively out of the pen. However, with the plethora of off days for the Sox to close out August, Cashner will shift to the bullpen with hopes he'll be more effective. Brandon Workman blew his save chance in the ninth inning, so with Cashner can effectively enter his hat into the ring for future opportunities. Workman's fantasy stock certainly drops as Boston's closer, while the remainder of the bullpen isnt an option because set roles are few and far between.

Boston Red Sox starting pitcher Andrew Cashner has been demoted to the bullpen by the organization on Monday. Cashner was pitching well with the Baltimore Orioles before the Red Sox acquired him. He has a 8.01 ERA in six starts since joining the Red Sox rotation. Manager Alex Cora plans to use him in short stints out of the bullpen. Cashner won't have any fantasy value in the bullpen.
