Daulton Jefferies Stats

Oakland Athletics right-hander Daulton Jefferies was diagnosed with thoracic outlet syndrome on Friday. Jefferies was initially thought to be dealing with biceps tightness after allowing seven runs in his Wednesday start but further testing revealed a more severe issue. His Friday diagnosis is not good news for the 26-year-old, who will likely need to undergo surgery. The average recovery time is at least 11 months, meaning that Jefferies would be sidelined until sometime after the 2023 season begins. Jefferies has made eight starts in 2022, posting a 1-7 record, 5.72 ERA, 1.37 WHIP, and 28 strikeouts over 39 1/3 innings of work.

Jefferies has struggled this season, owning a 1-7 record with a 5.72 ERA, 137 WHIP, and 28 strikeouts over 39 1/3 innings. Even if Jefferies avoids a significant injury, he can be left on the waiver wire in most league formats.

Oakland Athletics starting pitcher Daulton Jefferies helped the team avoid a sweep against the Philadelphia Phillies on Sunday. Making his first start of the year, the 26-year-old pitched five innings and allowed two hits, two walks and no runs while striking out two. He threw 30 of his 48 pitches for strikes. Jefferies has been one of the team's top pitching prospects the past few years, but he's struggled in his limited appearances in the majors. Prior to Sunday's outing, he had made six appearances in the majors (two starts) and had posted a 5.82 ERA and a 1.29 WHIP while averaging just 4.8 K/9. He's worth keeping an eye on in deep leagues and AL-only leagues, but he has an uphill battle toward being fantasy relevant. His next start will be on Friday against a terrifying Toronto Blue Jays offense.
