Brett Kennedy Stats

Cincinnati Reds right-hander Brett Kennedy has been added to the team's taxi squad on Monday from Triple-A Louisville, and he's likely to make the start on Tuesday against the Washington Nationals. Kennedy, who made his first six major-league starts for the San Diego Padres back in 2018, signed a minor-league deal with the Reds after starting 2023 in Independent ball. The 28-year-old hurler posted a 3.71 ERA, 1.35 WHIP, 12 walks and 37 strikeouts in 43 2/3 innings over eight starts at Louisville before getting the call-up to Cincinnati this week. It will be a solid matchup for Kennedy against the last-place Nats, but he'll still only be a streaming option for the absolute desperate fantasy managers on Tuesday's slate.

San Diego Padres starter Brett Kennedy (knee) underwent debridement surgery in his left knee on Wednesday. His rehab should take a couple months and he expects to resume throwing in November. Kennedy earned his first crack at the big leagues this season with an impressive 10-0 record at Triple-A El Paso but struggled in the majors with a 6.75 ERA and 1.50 strikeout-to-walk ratio across six starts. Kennedy isnt high on the Padres prospect list but will compete for a rotation spot next season. He can be ignored in fantasy.

San Diego Padres starter Brett Kennedy struggled in his major league debut, serving up 11 hits and six earned runs Wednesday against the Milwaukee Brewers. Kennedy endured a nightmare start to his career with a six-run first inning, including surrendering back-to-back-to-back homers. Encouragingly, he settled down to complete four total innings without conceding any more damage. The 24-year-old fanned three and walked none in the outing. Despite the forgettable debut, Kennedy is sure to get another opportunity with the rebuilding Padres. Hell likely get the nod next week against the Los Angeles Angels. Hes not an advisable fantasy option until he can post a few stronger performances.
