Jake Odorizzi Stats

Atlanta Braves starting pitcher Jake Odorizzi had a start to forget on Friday night against the Philadelphia Phillies, as he surrendered eight earned runs on 10 hits (one homer) while walking three and striking out six in four innings in the 9-1 loss. It was his worst performance since being acquired from the Houston Astros at the trade deadline, and he's now gone 1-3 with a 5.97 ERA (5.31 FIP), a 1.62 WHIP, 33 strikeouts and 14 walks in 37 2/3 innings and eight starts with Atlanta. In three starts in September, Odorizzi has allowed 13 earned runs on 17 hits (two homers) while walking seven and striking out 14. Despite his disappointing performances with the Braves so far, the 32-year-old veteran right-hander should remain in the starting rotation the rest of the way.

The Atlanta Braves have scratched right-hander Jake Odorizzi (arm) from his scheduled start on Saturday against the Miami Marlins with arm fatigue. Bryce Elder will toe the rubber in his place. Instead, Odorizzi will start next against the Mariners in Seattle. It's not a serious situation for the 32-year-old, but the Braves don't want to take any chances. In his five starts since being acquired from the Houston Astros, Odorizzi has gone 1-2 with a 4.26 ERA (5.65 FIP), 1.46 WHIP, 19 strikeouts and seven walks in 25 1/3 innings pitched. In 17 starts on the season as a whole, he's gone 5-5 with a 3.90 ERA (4.23 FIP), a 1.24 WHIP and a 65:24 K:BB in 85 1/3 innings. Elder, a rookie, is 1-3 with a 4.45 ERA (4.82 FIP), a 1.52 WHIP and 24 strikeouts in 28 1/3 innings over six outings (five starts) for Atlanta.

Atlanta Braves starting pitcher Jake Odorizzi "had cramping in his hamstring and glute in his last inning, got fluids via IV afterward, [and is] feeling fine now," he told The Athletic's David O'Brien. Acquired from Houston at the trade deadline, Odorizzi surrendered two runs through 4.2 innings in his Braves debut. Through 12 starts with the Astros, he went 4-3 with a 3.61 FIP, 6.90 K/9, and 2.55 BB/9. His established role and veteran presence give him fantasy allure in many leagues.
