Kansas City Royals right-hander Brady Singer allowed one run on five hits across five innings of work during Thursday's win over the Houston Astros. Singer struck out four in the contest while walking two. The 27-year-old is now 2-0 on the season with a sparkling 0.98 ERA, 0.76 WHIP and 18/4 K/BB rate. Singer was a sizeable disappointment for fantasy managers in 2023, but he has passed all the tests thus far in 2024. He is set to face the lowly Chicago White Sox in his next projected start and should be rostered in all formats while his resurgence continues.
Kanas City Royals right-hander Brady Singer will look for his second straight excellent outing on Friday when he and the Royals play host to the Chicago White Sox. The 27-year-old dominated the Minnesota Twins in his first outing of the season, tossing seven scoreless innings with just three hits and one walk allowed while he stuck out 10 Twins on the day. It was certainly an encouraging start to the season for Singer who struggled to a 5.52 ERA in 29 starts last season, although his 4.29 FIP, 4.46 SIERA, and 7% BB% all suggest he wasn't as poor as his surface ERA indicates. A drop to an 18.9% K% was concerning, however, as Singer's mediocre 22.1% K% for his career puts a cap on his fantasy value.
In Kansas City Royals right-hander Brady Singer's Cactus League debut on Wednesday against the Seattle Mariners, he showcased two new pitches -- a four-seam fastball and a sweeper. Singer had an up-and-down year in 2023, posting a career-worst 5.52 ERA in a career-high 159 2/3 innings pitched. His sinker remains his bread and butter, but mixing in a four-seamer and sweeper now could make the young starter more effective. All three of Singer's strikeouts on Wednesday came on his sweeper in two innings of work. His four-seamer has good carry and "explodes on the hitter because of the true backspin," pitching coach Brian Sweeney said. Perhaps the new pitches will give the 27-year-old more strikeout potential after being mostly a two-pitch guy up to this point in his career. Fantasy managers in shallow-mixed leagues can be patient.

Following a rocky start to his 2022 season, Kansas City Royals right-hander Brady Singer ended up sporting some quality surface stats. Singer finished the season with a 3.23 ERA across 24 starts, and 27 appearances spanning 151 1/3 innings pitched. He was solid in the second half, turning in a tidy 2.53 ERA across 81 2/3 frames with a fantastic 5.2% BB% to boot. However, the 26-year-old's fantasy upside was capped due to a lukewarm 24.2% K%, a figure Steamer projects to slip to a 21.9% mark in 2023. More concerning are Singer's Statcast rankings. He ranked in the league's 28th percentile in average exit velocity, 44th in xERA/xwOBA, 33rd in barrel rate, and 17th in chase rate. His control is robust, but Singer's minor-league track record suggests he will not be a strikeout pitcher in the big leagues. The 2018 first-round pick is Rotoballer's 52nd-ranked starter and the 174th-ranked player coming into the 2023 campaign while boasting an ADP of around 190 in NFBC leagues. ATC projects Singer with a 3.87 ERA, 3.74 FIP, and an 8.34 K:9 across 175 innings in 2023. Given the uneasy metrics and limited strikeout potential, we don't suggest reaching for Singer anywhere before the 175th pick.
