Josh Fleming News
The Pittsburgh Pirates announced on Wednesday that they signed free-agent left-hander Josh Fleming to a split one-year deal. The 27-year-old southpaw will make $850,000 if he's in the big leagues in 2024. The Pirates are planning to use him in a long-relief role, which won't give him much fantasy appeal for the rebuilding Bucs. Fleming went 2-0 in 2023 with a 4.70 ERA (5.66 FIP) and 1.45 WHIP with 19 walks and 25 strikeouts in 51 2/3 innings over 12 appearances (three starts), and he has a career 4.88 ERA and 1.42 WHIP with one save and 144 strikeouts in 223 1/3 innings over 55 outings (22 starts) in four years with the Tampa Bay Rays. Elbow issues cost Fleming more than two months in 2023, and at best, he'll be a low-upside streamer in NL-only leagues if he makes any spot starts in Pittsburgh.
The Philadelphia Phillies have claimed left-hander pitcher Josh Fleming off waivers from the Tampa Bay Rays. Fleming, 27, appeared in just 12 games with the Rays in 2023 and worked to a 4.70 ERA across 51 2/3 innings of work as three of his 12 outings came as starts. After tossing a healthy 2.78 ERA across 32 1/3 innings as a rookie in the COVID-shortened 2020 season, the left-hander has largely scuffled in the big leagues, including a 6.43 ERA in 35 appearances in the 2022 season. He posted a 3.06 ERA across 64 2/3 innings at the Triple-A level in 2022 but regressed to a 4.35 ERA in 31 innings at Triple-A in the 2023 campaign. All told, Fleming owns a 4.88 ERA across 55 outings (22 starts) and 223 1/3 innings in the big leagues.
Tampa Bay Rays pitcher Josh Fleming (elbow) is scheduled to visit Dr. Keith Meister next week. There appears to be additional concern here as the Rays have decided to get Fleming's elbow evaluated in person. The fear is that Fleming could be forced to have season-ending Tommy John surgery. Fantasy managers will have to stay tuned for more information after his visit with the doctor. Fleming has been decent, posting a 4.62 ERA, 1.44 WHIP in 48.7 innings with the Rays this season.
