Josh Tomlin Fantasy Stats

Atlanta Braves pitcher Josh Tomlin threw 4 1/3 innings of much-needed relief during the club's 12-2 loss to the Philadelphia Phillies on Friday. The veteran reliever came into the game in the first inning when veteran hurler Charlie Morton was unable to secure the third out. Tomlin allowed five hits and a walk but he struck out five batters and kept the ball in the park. The 36-year-old right-hander is now in his 12th season and is primarily a mop-up arm for the Braves. So far this season, he's allowed 26 hits but just four walks and one homer in 19 1/3 innings. He's not a useful fantasy contributor in his current role.

Atlanta Braves starter Josh Tomlin allowed five runs on seven hits across four innings of work during Friday's 8-7 loss to the Washington Nationals. He struck out two batters while walking one. It was just a dismal outing from the 35-year-old as he gave up three runs in the first inning before recording an out. Tomlin now owns a 4.68 ERA through 32 2/3 innings in 2020. He is nothing more than a mid-tier streaming option when he takes the mound.

Atlanta Braves starter Josh Tomlin allowed four runs on six hits across three innings of work during Sunday's 5-4 loss to the Philadelphia Phillies. He struck out five batters without issuing a walk but also gave up three home runs. It was an uninspiring outing from the 35-year-old, who now owns a 3.93 ERA and 1.20 WHIP through 18 1/3 innings this season. He is nothing more than a mid-tier streaming option ahead of his next projected start, which will be a rematch with the Phillies.

Atlanta Braves pitcher Josh Tomlin allowed two runs on six hits across four innings of work during Tuesday's 8-5 loss to the Washington Nationals. He struck out two batters and walked one in the no-decision. Tomlin has performed well across nine appearances this season, posting a 2.35 ERA and 1.04 WHIP through 15 1/3 innings. Due to the lack of depth in the Braves' rotation, it seems likely that Tomlin will continue to get looks as a starter. He has modest fantasy value in deeper leagues when he is facing mediocre opponents.

The Atlanta Braves purchased the contracts of right-handed pitcher Josh Tomlin and first baseman Yonder Alonso to the major league roster on Saturday. Tomlin, 35, could be an option to begin the year as an opener or as a piggyback option in Atlanta's rotation with Cole Hamels unlikely to be ready. That likely won't translate to much fantasy value at all, however, unless Tomlin vultures some wins. The veteran swingman had a 3.74 ERA, 1.12 WHIP and just a 5.8 K/9 in 79 1/3 innings for the Braves last year. Alonso was a bust last year for the White Sox and ended up hitting just .199 with a .642 OPS with Chicago and Colorado. He brings depth at first base behind Freddie Freeman and at the designated hitter spot, but he's one to avoid in mixed leagues.

Facing a litany of injuries to their pitching staff, the Atlanta Braves have named veteran right-hander Josh Tomlin to the 25-man roster for Opening Day. The 34-year-old, who began the spring with the Brewers before being released, will likely serve as the long reliever out of the bullpen. A casualty of Tomlin's promotion is Adam Duvall, the former All-Star of the Cincinnati Reds. Tomlin spent the first nine years of his professional career with the Cleveland Indians, where he served as reliever and starter. Last season he appeared in a career-high 32 games, but struggled mightily, posting a 6.14 ERA.

The Milwaukee Brewers signed free-agent starting pitcher Josh Tomlin to a minor league deal with an invite to spring training on Thursday, according to a source. The veteran right-hander will receive a $1.25 million base salary if he's in the majors and can reach $2.25 million with incentives based on innings pitched. He can max out at $3.5 million with 150 innings. The 34-year-old saw 19 outings (only nine starts) and posted an ugly 6.14 ERA, 1.48 WHIP and weak 5.9 K/9 in 70 1/3 innings for the Indians in 2018. Tomlin will compete for a back-end rotation spot and would purely be a streamer in NL-only leagues if he wins a job.

Cleveland Indians pitcher Josh Tomlin was placed on the 10-day disabled list with a hamstring injury. Tomlin was recently moved to the bullpen, however, he is still struggling in 2018, pitching to an 0-5 record with a 6.98 ERA and a 30/10 K/BB ratio. He shouldn't be owned in any fantasy leagues. Adam Plutko was called up in a corresponding move.

Cleveland Indians starting pitcher Josh Tomlin will be moved to the bullpen. Tomlin's had a hard time in 2018, posting a 7.84 ERA and 1.68 WHIP while allowing 15 home runs in 31 innings of work. He was a decent innings eating back-of-the-rotation starter as recently as last season, so it's likely he'll get another chance this season. For now, Adam Plutko will get the first chance to take Tomlin's rotation spot.

Cleveland Indians starting pitcher Josh Tomlin worked 5 1/3 innings on Tuesday, leaving with a no-decision. He allowed four runs on six hits on the evening, walking none and striking out four. With two more home runs allowed on Tuesday, Tomlin has now given up a ludicrous 15 home runs in 31 innings of work. He'll take a 7.84 ERA into his next start and would seem to be in great danger of losing his rotation spot.
