The Seattle Mariners have signed free-agent pitcher Austin Voth to a one-year, $1.25 million contract. The 31-year-old worked to a 5.19 ERA across 25 relief outings with the Orioles in 2023 but elbow inflammation bothered him for much of the season and he did not pitch after Aug. 30. Voth has bounced between the rotation and bullpen in parts of six seasons in the big leagues, combining to post a 4.90 ERA across 139 career appearances, 39 of which have been starts. Voth has fared better as a starter, posting a solid 4.23 ERA across 178 2/3 innings as a starter versus a 5.89 ERA in 120 2/3 frames as a reliever. Given the Mariners' starting pitching depth, Voth is likely bullpen-bound in 2024.
Austin Voth Transferred To 60-Day Injured List Monday
Baltimore Orioles pitcher Austin Voth (elbow) was transferred from the 15-day injured list to the 60-day IL Monday. The move occurred to make room for newly-claimed pitcher Jacob Webb. While he has begun a rehab assignment, Voth has been dealing with right elbow inflammation since the middle of June, so it will still be some time before he could rejoin the O's. The 31-year-old had posted a lackluster 4.94 ERA and 1.58 WHIP in 31 innings of relief prior to his injury.
Baltimore Orioles pitcher Austin Voth (elbow) is expected to make a rehab start Tuesday in the Florida Complex League, per MASN Sports' Roch Kubatko. The 31-year-old has been on the injured list with right elbow discomfort since the middle of June. While he has started in his career, Voth has pitched exclusively out of the bullpen for the O's this season, compiling a 4.94 ERA, 1.58 WHIP, and 21.5% strikeout rate in 31 innings pitched.
Baltimore Orioles relief pitcher Austin Voth (elbow) is taking anti-inflammatories for his right elbow and has been shut down from throwing for a week after being placed on the injured list on Wednesday with right-elbow inflammation. The 30-year-old right-hander has been dealing with the elbow injury since spring training, so they'll give him a little time off to heal. In 23 appearances out of the bullpen for Baltimore in 2023, Voth has a 4.94 ERA (5.44 FIP), 1.58 WHIP, 14 walks and 31 strikeouts in 31 innings pitched. He's of little use in fantasy leagues and is currently rostered in 0% of Yahoo leagues.
The Baltimore Orioles and right-hander Austin Voth avoided salary arbitration on Thursday by agreeing to a one-year deal for the 2023 season. The deal also includes a team option for 2024. Financial terms weren't disclosed. Voth spent 2022 with both the Orioles and Washington Nationals, posting a 4.34 ERA (4.13 FIP), 1.39 WHIP and 20.4 percent strikeout rate in a career-high 101 2/3 innings over 41 outings (17 starts). He was much better in Baltimore and started 17 of his 22 outings. The 30-year-old could see some more starts for the O's in 2023, but he won't be all that attractive in fantasy outside of being a potential deep-league streamer. Voth has a 4.86 ERA (4.76 FIP) and 1.38 WHIP in five major-league seasons.
Washington Nationals pitcher Austin Voth (nose) was activated from the injured list on Friday and told reporters he is ready to get back into games. Voth underwent surgery on a broken nose after being hit in the face by a pitch on June 6, but when asked about his broken nose and black eye on Friday, he said he is "still pretty good-looking, I feel like." The 28-year-old righty is having a good year, going 2-0 with a 2.93 ERA and 29 strikeouts in 29 2/3 innings. Voth will likely get a lot of work out of the bullpen, but fantasy managers should be on the lookout for him to get some work in the starting rotation as well if the Nats are without Max Scherzer (groin) and Stephen Strasburg (neck) for too long.
Washington Nationals pitcher Austin Voth (face) will likely miss a lengthy amount of time after being hit in the face by a pitch on Sunday, according to Jesse Dougherty of the Washington Post. Manager Dave Martinez said that Voth's surgery went well, but Voth's left eye is almost completely swollen shut and will require some time to heal. Martinez adds that there is no timetable for Voth's return, and that it will be some time before a timetable can be established. Voth was having a great year on the mound, going 2-0 with a 2.93 ERA and 29 strikeouts in 29 2/3 innings of work. In most formats, Voth can be safely dropped for now given the injury plus his primary usage as a reliever.
Washington Nationals pitcher Austin Voth (nose) was forced to exit early during Sunday's game against the Philadelphia Phillies. He suffered a broken nose when getting hit in the face by a pitch. It sounds like he'll remain in Philly to have his nose reset before rejoining the team. The Nationals have not announced a timetable for Voth, but it wouldn't be surprising if he lands on the injured list. He has been pitching well this season, so fantasy managers who have Voth rostered should hold him until more information is released.
Washington Nationals right-hander Austin Voth exited Sunday's game early after being hit in the face by Vince Velasquez while attempting to bunt. Voth was taking Stephen Strasburg's spot in the rotation after the latter was placed on the injured list with a neck strain. Velasquez was wild in this outing as he hit Victor Robles with a pitch before hitting Voth. The good news is that Voth was able to walk off on his own after the scary play. He had worked a pair of scoreless innings with two strikeouts before exiting. The team should provide an update on him following the game's conclusion.
Washington Nationals pitcher Austin Voth will take over the pitching for the club as they resume their suspended game from Wednesday night. Voth is set to throw up to 50 pitches, according to manager Dave Martinez. Voth hasn't thrown more than three innings on the season, but he could be a strong option for fantasy managers dealing with limits on starts, as he could end up in a good position for a win. He holds a 2.45 ERA and 1.18 WHIP for the year with 23 strikeouts in 22 innings.
