Corey Oswalt Fantasy Stats

The Philadelphia Phillies acquired right-handed pitcher Corey Oswalt from the San Francisco Giants over the weekend, in exchange for cash considerations. Oswalt hadn't pitched in a major league game for the Giants this year, and he threw only 10 1/3 innings for the New York Mets last year, allowing four earned runs while walking two and striking out 10 in three appearances (one start). The 28-year-old has a 5.89 career ERA, a 1.41 WHIP and a 17.2% strikeout rate in 94 2/3 innings pitched in four major league seasons, all with the Mets. At Triple-A Sacramento this year, Oswalt had a rough 7.11 ERA in just 12 2/3 innings. He'll represent relief depth for the Phillies.

The New York Mets placed right-hander Corey Oswalt (knee) on the 10-day injured list on Tuesday with right knee inflammation and recalled right-hander Robert Stock from Triple-A Syracuse in a corresponding move. Oswalt suffered the injury in his first start of the season on Sunday against the New York Yankees. He had a 3.48 ERA, 1.35 WHIP and 10/2 K/BB in three outings (one start) over just 10 1/3 innings pitched for the Mets this year. Stock is likely to take Oswalt's spot in the Mets depleted rotation for the time being and start against the Milwaukee Brewers on Wednesday. The right-hander allowed five earned runs while striking out three and walking six in four innings in a loss to the Chicago Cubs on June 16 in his only start of the season. Stock won't be a recommended fantasy streamer on Wednesday.

New York Mets starting pitcher Chris Oswalt could be in line to be a permanent member of the team's rotation. The 27-year-old, who was recently picked up from Triple-A Syracuse, started in Game 2 of Sunday's doubleheader against the Yankees. Although the righty struggled to some degree, allowing four hits and three ER throughout four innings of work, he still managed to strike out four batters. He could get another start sometime before the All-Star break, but even if he doesn't, he is still someone to keep an eye on, primarily with the team having issues keeping people healthy this season.

New York Mets pitcher Corey Oswalt will start on Saturday against the Red Sox. Oswalt would be a terrible streaming option for fantasy owners. He sports a 6.62 ERA, 1.36 WHIP and weak 5.8 K/9 over 14 outings (nine starts) for the Mets this season. He'll be facing the best lineup in baseball. Stay away from him.

New York Mets pitcher Corey Oswalt is being moved to the bullpen. Oswalt wasn't much of a fantasy option during his time in the rotation. He went 2-2 with a 5.31 ERA, 1.23 WHIP and weak 5.3 K/9 in eight starts. If you were using him in a deep NL-only league, you can now safely drop him for more appealing options.

New York Mets right-hander Corey Oswalt defeated the Philadelphia Phillies on Thursday in the first game of a doubleheader. It was Oswalt's second win of the season. The righty went six innings, allowing four runs on nine hits to go along with two strikeouts. It wasn't the most impressive stat line, but Oswalt was backed by the Mets' 24 runs in an absolute blowout victory. Mets manager Mickey Callaway said he will continue to send Oswalt to the mound as long as he is pitching effectively. Expect to see Oswalt back out there sometime next week.

New York Mets starting pitcher Corey Oswalt notched a quality start on Saturday against the Miami Marlins. Oswalt fired six innings, allowing three runs on six hits to go along with three strikeouts. The right-hander, despite pitching well, was hit with a no-decision. Since blowing up earlier this season in a start against Miami, Oswalt has been a reasonable streaming option for the Mets, He is 1-1 with a 3.94 ERA in his last six starts and has yet to allow more than three runs in an outing in that span. With the return of Steven Matz (forearm) looming, the Mets are considering a six-man rotation to keep Oswalt pitching in the big leagues.

Atlanta Braves starting pitcher Julio Teheran probably didn't care that he got a no-decision on Sunday after going 5 2/3 innings and giving up three runs. He was probably still giddy about connecting for his first homer of the season, a solo shot off Corey Oswalt. Teheran struck out six, but he also walked four. He'll face a much tougher foe when he takes the mound again - the Milwaukee Brewers. That might be a good one to sit him.

New York Mets pitcher Corey Oswalt was optioned to Triple-A Las Vegas on Thursday to make room for starting pitcher Jason Vargas to come off the disabled list and start on Friday. Aside from a six-run outing against the Marlins on June 29, Oswalt has been solid in his five other starts for the Mets. He most recently allowed two runs in five innings to the Padres on Wednesday. Oswalt is sporting a 5.27 ERA overall, though, and he has only 6.3 strikeouts per nine innings. With Vargas returning and Noah Syndergaard expected back next week, there is no room for him.

New York Mets starting pitcher Corey Oswalt (hand) jammed his hand while swinging a bat on Wednesday, which led to his early removal from the game. However, manager Mickey Callaway said Oswalt should be fine in a few days. Oswalt made it through five innings while allowing two runs to the Padres to earn his first big league win. He struck out four and walked two. It's unclear if Oswalt will remain in the rotation.
