Glenn Otto Stats

Texas Rangers catcher/designated hitter Mitch Garver and starting pitcher Glenn Otto were both placed on the COVID-19-related injured list on Friday. Otto was the expected starter for Friday night against the Chicago White Sox, but now the Rangers will start reliever Matt Bush in what figures to be a bullpen game. As for Garver, his stint on the IL will be catcher Jonah Heim's opportunity to play close to every day. If you need a replacement for Garver in a deeper league, Heim is not a bad option, as the 26-year-old is slashing .262/.324/.485 with seven homers on the season.

Texas Rangers starting pitcher Glenn Otto has put together a bit of a mixed bag during his time in the MLB. On Thursday, he went two innings, six hits allowed, five earned runs, one walk, and two strikeouts in the 7-6 win. He somehow didn't lose this game even after allowing five runs in the first inning. Otto now has an ERA of 9.26 in 23 1/3 innings in the big leagues. He has put together some quality outings, but Otto has also been rocked quite a bit. He'll likely have to battle for a spot on the roster during spring training. Otto probably won't be someone worth targeting on draft day in most fantasy leagues.

Texas Rangers starting pitcher Glenn Otto bounced back nicely on Thursday after giving up seven runs during his previous start. This time around, Otto went five innings, five hits allowed, two earned runs, one walk, and seven strikeouts in the 3-0 loss to the Baltimore Orioles. The 25-year-old has an ugly 8.02 ERA through five starts, but it was really because of one bad outing. The Rangers are expected to ride with Otto through the rest of the regular season. It's uncertain if he'll be a lock for the rotation next season, but he'll remain off the fantasy radar for now.
