Jared Hughes News
Recently signed New York Mets relief pitcher Jared Hughes, 35, has yet to appear in Mets' camp. The Mets have not provided any reason for Hughes' absence. Hughes posted a 4.04 ERA, 1.18 WHIP, one save, and 54 strikeouts in 71 1/3 innings for the Reds and Phillies in 2019. Hughes will likely serve in middle relief for the Mets this season, provided he is healthy and ready to go by Opening Day. He is not on the fantasy radar for the condensed 60-game season.
Cincinnati Reds reliever Jared Hughes picked up his third win of the season in Monday's 2-1 game against the Cardinals. Hughes entered the ninth inning down 1-0 and pitched a 1-2-3 inning with a strikeout. A Reds' rally in the bottom of the inning gave the team, and Hughes the win. He is now 3-3 on the season with nine holds and six saves to go with a glistening 1.56 ERA in 52 innings pitched. Hughes is a worthwhile stash at this point given his performance and talks of closer Raisel Iglesias possibly getting traded.
Cincinnati Reds relief pitcher Jared Hughes earned his sixth save of the season on Wednesday against the White Sox. Hughes entered the game with a two-run lead and one out in the eighth inning and proceeded to pitch 1 2/3 innings, allowing no runs on a hit and a walk with two strikeouts. Hughes was merely filling in for closer Raisel Iglesias, who had pitched in the past three games, but he has been a serviceable fantasy option in his own right, posting a 1.37 ERA with two wins, two saves, and eight holds in 46 IP. With Iglesias' name floating around the trade market, Hughes' fantasy value could go up if Iglesias were to get dealt and Hughes were to stay in Cincinnati as the closer.
