Darren O'Day News
The Atlanta Braves moved relief pitcher Darren O'Day's (calf) minor league rehab assignment from High-A Rome to Triple-A Gwinnett on Tuesday. O'Day struck out a batter in a scoreless inning of work for Rome last Friday. The 39-year-old right-hander might only need a few more rehab outings before he's activated from the 15-day injured list. O'Day landed on the injured list on July 13 with a left calf strain. Before the injury, he was sporting a 4.15 ERA, a 1.34 WHIP and a 26:10 K:BB in 21 2/3 relief innings for the Braves. The veteran side-armer isn't of any real value to fantasy managers.
The Atlanta Braves signed right-handed reliever Darren O'Day to a minor league deal on Monday. The 39-year-old side-armer signed a one-year deal with the New York Yankees last winter but pitched in only 10 2/3 innings due to a rotator cuff strain and a season-ending hamstring injury that required surgery. If he's in the majors with the Braves next season, he'll make $1 million. In his 14 big-league seasons, O'Day has a nice 2.53 ERA in 587 1/3 innings pitched. He previously pitched with Atlanta from 2019-20 but pitched only 21 2/3 innings due to injuries, and he hasn't gone over 20 innings pitched in a season since 2017. If O'Day cracks the Opening Day roster, he'll be a relief option against right-handed bats.
New York Yankees relief pitcher Darren O'Day (hamstring) will have season-ending surgery to repair a left hamstring injury. O'Day signed a $2.5 million deal in the offseason with the Yankees but has been limited to just 12 games this season due to a shoulder injury and the hamstring ailment. The 38-year-old reliever is reportedly contemplating his future beyond 2021, but he will have to make his decision right before the World Series due to the player option on his contract. O'Day has had a solid career, pitching to a 2.53 ERA 587 1/3 innings, though his fantasy upside has been limited, given that he has just 21 career saves and hasn't amassed double-digit holds since 2017.
