Devin Smeltzer News
Minnesota Twins pitcher Devin Smeltzer pitched 4 1/3 innings against the Royals, allowing two runs while walking one and striking out a pair. Smeltzer left in a tie game so he couldn't factor into the decision, though it was a somewhat successful debut for his new slider. The 24-year-old threw the pitch 15 times and got three swings-and-misses on it. Smeltzer seems to have settled down after allowing five runs and two homers in his first appearance against the White Sox. He likely won't have much fantasy value, considering he's a fill-in starter at this point and will be relegated back to the 'pen when Rich Hill (shoulder) and Homer Bailey (biceps) return.
Minnesota Twins left-handed pitcher Devin Smeltzer has been shifted to the starting rotation for Fridays contest against the Royals. Smeltzer worked behind an opener his last time out and allowed one run over 2 innings, a drastic step forward from his nightmarish debut July 25 (2 IP, 5 ER). The southpaw has starting experience from last year, where he produced a 4.11 ERA across his six starts. He holds little season-long value aside from the deepest formats (especially due to pitch count concerns), but has some DFS intrigue as he matches up with a Kansas City offense that ranked 27th in the Majors in on-base percentage (.274) entering play Thursday.
Minnesota Twins pitcher Devin Smeltzer worked the second two innings of the opener on Sunday and picked up his first win of the season. The 24-year-old allowed two hits, one run and walked one batter while striking out a pair. It was a much better outing this time around for Smeltzer, who was shelled for five runs and two homers against the White Sox on July 25. He won't have too many chances to be fantasy-relevant this year, unless an injury forces him into action. Smeltzer is best left to the waiver wire.
