Jimmy Yacabonis News
The Seattle Mariners purchased the contract of Jimmy Yacabonis from their alternate training site on Wednesday evening. The 28-year-old has not pitched yet in 2020, but he registered a 6.80 ERA and 33/24 K/BB rate in 2019. Yacabonis will stretch out the Mariners' bullpen a bit, but he holds no fantasy value for the remainder of the season.
Baltimore Orioles pitcher Jimmy Yacabonis will start Tuesday's game against the San Diego Padres. Yacabonis performed admirably as an opener against the Oakland Athletics on June 19, tossing two scoreless innings while striking out one batter. Despite the strong outing, Yacabonis has miniscule fantasy value and a 4.70 ERA through 23 innings this season. Let him toil on the waiver wire.
The Baltimore Orioles did some bullpen shuffling Thursday, activating relief pitcher Richard Bleier from the 10-day injured list and sending pitcher Jimmy Yacabonis to Triple-A Norfolk. Bleier earned his first career save on April 1, but only has a 14.54 ERA in 4 1/3 innings this season. Even if he works his way into more saves, opportunities will be few and far between in Baltimore, so there isn't value to be had here. Yacabonis had a 6.11 ERA in 17 2/3 innings with a mediocre 9-to-7 K-BB ratio and was not a fantasy entity even when in the Majors.
