Garrett Cleavinger Stats

Tampa Bay Rays left-hander Garrett Cleavinger (knee) is dealing with a torn right ACL in his knee and is likely out for the rest of the season. Cleavinger collided with New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Hicks in the game on Sunday and will now face a long rehab. The 29-year-old southpaw was proving to be a key piece of Tampa's bullpen so far this year, posting a 3.00 ERA (4.94 FIP), 1.00 WHIP, six walks and 14 strikeouts in 12 innings over his 15 relief appearances. He was even better in 13 relief outings for the Rays in 2022 with a 2.41 ERA (1.77 FIP), 0.64 WHIP, four walks and 25 strikeouts in 18 2/3 innings pitched.

Los Angeles Dodgers relief pitcher Garrett Cleavinger (oblique) was placed on the 10-day injured list on Sunday with an oblique injury, according to Bill Plunkett of the Orange County Register. To replace him on the active roster, the Dodgers recalled pitcher Justin Bruihl from Triple-A Oklahoma City. Cleavinger has had a solid year out of the bullpen, going 2-4 with a 3.00 ERA, 1.778 WHIP and 25 percent strikeout rate over 18 innings of work. However he hasn't been an option in SV/HLD formats, as he has no saves or holds over 22 appearances this season. He can safely be left on the waiver wire in all formats.

Los Angeles Dodgers relief pitcher Garrett Cleavinger (forearm) was activated from the injured list on Thursday, according to Juan Toribio of MLB.com. Cleavinger had made eight appearances this season before being sidelined with left forearm inflammation, allowing six runs three earned on eight hits and four walks while striking out nine over six innings of work. He's shown in the minors that he can be a high strikeout reliever (30.4 K% over six seasons), and he could be a decent option in deeper SV/HLD formats going forward.
