Justus Sheffield Stats

Seattle Mariners pitcher Justus Sheffield has been optioned to Triple-A Tacoma on Sunday. They need to shorten their roster, so it seems that Sheffield is the odd man out. He was excellent out of the bullpen for the Mariners. He threw 4 2/3 scoreless innings during his time at the big leagues this season. Although, the Mariners are likely sending him to the minors, so he can stretch out as a starting pitcher. Fantasy managers shouldn't expect Sheffield to remain in the minors for too long.

Seattle Mariners pitcher Justus Sheffield (forearm) was activated from the 10-day injured list on Wednesday. He went on to appear in the team's game against the Houston Astros on Wednesday, making his first relief outing of the year. He pitched a scoreless sixth inning, allowing one hit and no walks without striking anyone out. He also earned the win, improving his record to 6-8 on the year. Sheffield was sidelined for nearly two months due to a left forearm strain. It's been a rough year for him as he's posted a 6.39 ERA and a 1.77 WHIP over 16 games (15 starts). It's unclear at this point if he'll remain in the bullpen or join the rotation again. Either way, he can be left on waivers in all fantasy leagues.

Seattle Mariners starting pitcher Justus Sheffield (oblique) struggled heavily during his rehab start with Triple-A Tacoma on Sunday. He lasted an inning 1/3 while allowing four runs and walking five batters. Sheffield does have the ability to get MLB hitters out, but this was just a bad outing. Clearly, he needs more time in the minors before he's ready to return to Seattle. The 25-year-old has been out since the beginning of July with a Grade 2 oblique strain. He wasn't reliable when healthy, so Sheffield can remain on the waiver wire.
