Cody Poteet Fantasy Stats

Baltimore Orioles starting pitcher Cody Poteet (shoulder) recently received an injection on his injured shoulder. The hope is that Poteet has a positive reaction to the injection and can begin throwing within the next few days. The right-hander has been sidelined since late April due to right shoulder inflammation. The assumption is that Poteet will require multiple rehab outings before becoming an option for the O's. At best, Poteet could return by the end of July, but August seems like a better timetable. Poteet isn't someone that needs to be rostered right now in fantasy formats.

The Baltimore Orioles announced on Tuesday that they placed right-hander Cody Poteet (shoulder) on the 15-day injured list (retroactive to April 21) with right-shoulder inflammation and recalled right-hander Brandon Young from Triple-A Norfolk in a corresponding move. Poteet's right shoulder was apparently giving him problems in his first outing of the season on Sunday against the Cincinnati Reds, when he allowed five earned runs on six hits while walking two and striking out one in 2 2/3 innings of work out of the bullpen in a 24-2 shellacking. It's unclear how long the 30-year-old veteran reliever will be on the injured list, but fantasy managers can continue to ignore him whenever he gets back. Poteet has never thrown more than 30 2/3 innings at the big-league level since debuting with the Miami Marlins back in 2021.

Baltimore Orioles right-handed pitcher Cody Poteet has been recalled from Triple-A Norfolk. In a corresponding move, the Orioles optioned pitching prospect Brandon Young to Triple-A. Young made his MLB debut on Saturday and allowed seven hits and three runs across four innings of work. Poteet joined Baltimore in March via a trade from the Chicago Cubs. Last summer, Poteet logged 24 1/3 innings with the New York Yankees and held a 2.22 ERA with a 1.07 WHIP. He struck out 16 batters and was deployed out of both the rotation and the bullpen. Fantasy managers should expect Poteet to likely operate out of the bullpen, but he could be given a few spot starts in Baltimore. Through 83 career innings in the major leagues, Poteet has posted a 3.80 ERA with a 1.22 WHIP.

The Baltimore Orioles have acquired pitcher Cody Poteet from the Chicago Cubs in exchange for cash. Poteet was optioned to Triple-A Norfolk after the swap was made. The 30-year-old was in camp with the Cubs but did not make the Opening Day roster and had been with Triple-A Iowa to begin the year. The righty spent the 2024 campaign with the New York Yankees and held a 2.22 ERA with a 1.07 WHIP across 24 1/3 innings, working as both a reliever and as a starter. He'll probably be one of the first names called when the Orioles need help out of the bullpen or a spot start, but isn't on the fantasy radar at this point.

The Chicago Cubs optioned pitchers Cody Poteet, Caleb Kilian, Jack Neely, and Gavin Hollowell to Triple-A on Saturday. Poteet spent the 2024 campaign with the New York Yankees and held a 2.22 ERA with a 1.07 WHIP across 24 1/3 innings. Kilian is a former well-regarded prospect but has struggled through his brief taste of the majors as he posted a high 9.22 ERA with a 2.01 WHIP across 27 1/3 innings. Neely made his MLB debut last summer and held a 9.00 ERA with a 1.67 WHIP across his first six MLB frames. Hollowell began his MLB career in Colorado and only logged one 1/3 innings with the Cubs last season. This transaction should provide Chris Flexen and Nate Pearson a good opportunity to make the Opening Day roster, who both signed a contract with the Cubs in the offseason.

Chicago Cubs right-hander Cody Poteet, who was acquired in the offseason trade with the New York Yankees that involved outfielder Cody Bellinger, is slated to start the team's Cactus League opener on Thursday against the Los Angeles Dodgers. Pitchers Brad Keller, Daniel Palencia, Jack Neely and Brooks Kriske are scheduled to appear in Thursday's game for Chicago. Poteet, 30, appeared in only five games (four starts) for the Yankees in 2024 and allowed seven runs (six earned) on 18 hits (two home runs) while walking eight and striking out 16 in 24 1/3 innings pitched. Barring injuries to other Cubs pitchers, Poteet will likely open the 2025 campaign at Triple-A Iowa. Poteet has a 3.80 ERA and 1.22 WHIP with a 69:35 K:BB in 83 big-league innings over 24 outings (13 starts) in three MLB seasons since debuting with the Marlins in 2021. He's off the fantasy radar altogether.

The Chicago Cubs acquired right-handed reliever Cody Poteet from the New York Yankees on Tuesday in exchange for outfielder/first baseman Cody Bellinger and cash, according to sources. Poteet only appeared in five regular-season games (four starts) for the Yankees in 2024 and allowed seven runs (six earned) on 18 hits (two home runs) while walking eight and striking out 16 in 24 1/3 innings pitched. He made his debut in 2021 with the Miami Marlins and has a 3.80 ERA and 1.22 WHIP with a 20.2% strikeout rate and 10.2% walk rate in 83 innings over three major-league seasons. Poteet won't be anywhere near the fantasy radar next year but will give the Cubs some pitching insurance as both a starter and reliever. He will most likely start the 2025 campaign pitching for Triple-A Iowa.

New York Yankees pitcher Cody Poteet (triceps) has begun lightly throwing from the mound and is nearing his first bullpen session. Poteet hit the 15-day injured list on June 18 with a right triceps strain and was shut down from throwing through the rest of June before being re-evaluated. The 29-year-old made four starts this season and performed well with a 2.14 ERA, 1.05 WHIP, and a 7:13 BB:K ratio across 21 innings. He limited hard contact quite well with a 6.6% barrel rate. The UCLA product will likely shift to a bullpen role once he is cleared to return but may be called upon during the stretch run to make a handful of spot starts. He might have streaming appeal but should be left on all waiver wires for the time being.

New York Yankees right-hander Cody Poteet (finger) will make the start on Saturday against the San Francisco Giants after the Yankees placed right-hander Clarke Schmidt (lat) on the 15-day injured list on Thursday. Poteet had been dealing with a blister on his finger at Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, but manager Aaron Boone said he's good to go for this weekend. The 29-year-old had a quality start and a win in his lone start in the big leagues for the Yankees this year, allowing one earned run while walking none and striking out four in six innings against the Cleveland Guardians on April 13. At Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, he's gone 3-0 with a 4.05 ERA and 1.11 WHIP with a 38:11 K:BB in 33 1/3 innings over seven starts. Poteet should be sufficiently stretched out and will only be worth a look as a fantasy streamer in much deeper leagues.

The New York Yankees agreed to an undisclosed major-league deal with free-agent right-hander Cody Poteet on Thursday. Poteet pitched for the Miami Marlins in 2021-22 and had a 4.45 ERA in 19 appearances (nine starts). He had Tommy John surgery in August of 2022, signed with the Kansas City Royals on a minor-league deal and only pitched in one game in the minors in late September of 2023. The 29-year-old will become depth for the Yankees' starting rotation and bullpen heading into spring training in 2024. In his 19 appearances for the Fish, Poteet also posted a 1.28 WHIP, 27 walks and 53 strikeouts in 58 2/3 innings pitched. Poteet won't be anywhere near the fantasy radar for spring drafts.
