Craig Stammen Stats

San Diego Padres reliever Craig Stammen allowed four earned runs in two innings as the opener Tuesday against the Miami Marlins. The 37-year-old encountered trouble from the get-go, permitting three runs in the first frame before getting tagged with another one an inning later. He allowed six knocks and fanned two without any walks. The right-hander has been a valuable bullpen piece for the Friars in 2021, registering a solid 3.18 ERA, 1.09 WHIP and 25 percent strikeout rate in 65 frames while pitching in various situations. However, with long relief his key function, Stammen isn't actionable from a fantasy perspective.

San Diego Padres relief pitcher Craig Stammen might end up joining the starting rotation before the regular season is over. Manager Jayce Tingler said the team isn't ruling him using Stammen as a starter. He went two innings during a spot start in June and will get the nod against the Miami Marlins on Tuesday. The team will continue to let him go as long as possible, assuming he feels good on the mound. That means, Stammen could go four or five innings eventually if he is pitching well. It's unknown if the 37-year-old would have long term success as a starter at this point. Although, his fantasy value could be on the rise here soon.

San Diego Padres relief pitcher Craig Stammen (personal) has been activated off the paternity list following a short stint away from the team. He ended up missing three games, but is back as a main piece in the Padres bullpen. Stammen is posting a 2.78 ERA, 1.02 WHIP and 52/8 K/BB ratio across 55 innings this season. He doesn't have a ton of fantasy upside, but is certainly an asset in formats where relievers are valuable. Left-hander Daniel Camarena has been optioned to the minors in a corresponding move.
