Kyle Bradish Fantasy Stats

The Baltimore Orioles announced on Saturday that they agreed to a five-year, $90 million contract extension with right-hander Kyle Bradish for the 2027-31 seasons. The deal comes after Bradish has gone 6-9 with a 3.61 ERA (4.00 FIP) and 1.35 WHIP with 106 strikeouts and 50 walks in 107 1/3 innings across his first 19 starts in 2026 in his fifth year with the O's. The former fourth-round pick by the Los Angeles Angels in 2018 out of New Mexico State University has gone 25-24 with a 3.50 ERA (3.62 FIP), 1.21 WHIP, a 25.2% strikeout rate, and an 8.6% walk rate in 86 starts over his five seasons in the majors. Bradish made only 14 starts for Baltimore in 2024 and 2025 combined due to Tommy John surgery, but now that he's past that, he's locked in as one of the team's top-of-the-rotation arms for the foreseeable future. Since back-to-back outings to start June in which he allowed 10 total earned runs in two starts against the Toronto Blue Jays and Seattle Mariners, Bradish has allowed only nine runs (eight earned) with three wins, 11 walks, and 33 strikeouts in 34 innings in his last five starts. Bradish's arrow is pointing up for the second half of 2026.

Baltimore Orioles right-hander Kyle Bradish had perhaps his best start of the year on Wednesday night in Seattle in the team's 5-3 win over the Mariners, giving up just one earned run on five hits while walking two and striking out a season-high 12 batters in a season-high 7 2/3 innings for his fourth win of the season. Fantasy managers had to be pleased to see Bradish bounce back on Wednesday after giving up a combined 10 earned runs on 16 hits (four homers) while walking six and striking out eight in eight innings in his previous two starts versus the Toronto Blue Jays and Mariners. The 29-year-old former fourth-round pick in 2018 by the Los Angeles Angels out of New Mexico State University has had trouble with his command in 2026 with a career-worst 11.7% walk rate, and it hasn't helped that his strikeout rate has fallen from a career-best 37.3% last year to 24.2% this season. Still, it was nice to see him walk only two on Wednesday and bounce back with a dominant showing. Bradish will be a must-start his next time out against the last-place Angels.

Baltimore Orioles right-hander Kyle Bradish took his fifth loss of the season on Friday night against the visiting Athletics at Camden Yards, but it was a bounce-back performance nonetheless after he allowed a season-high five earned runs in four innings his last time out on May 2 against the New York Yankees. In the 4-3 loss to the A's on Friday, Bradish gave up three earned runs on five hits while walking one and striking out a season-high 10 batters. He threw 60 of his 96 total pitches for strikes and delivered his second quality start of the season despite taking his league-leading fifth loss. The 29-year-old is now 1-5 on the year with a 4.83 ERA (4.21 FIP), a 1.66 WHIP, 45 strikeouts, and 22 walks in 41 innings pitched for the O's. Fantasy managers will be hoping that this is the start of a turnaround for Bradish, but it won't get easier, as he's set for a rematch against the first-place Yankees next week. The Yankees hold the second-best OPS in baseball at .794, behind only the Dodgers.

Baltimore Orioles starting pitcher Kyle Bradish made his third Grapefruit League start on Wednesday, tossing five scoreless innings, allowing one hit and one walk while striking out two in the outing. Although fewer than one strikeout per inning is not what we've grown accustomed to from the right-hander, his stuff was clearly working, and notably, the velocity on his fastball topped out at 97.5 mph; the 6-foot-3 hurler's high in his first two Grapefruit League outings was 95.9 mph. It should only reinforce that the 29-year-old appears to be fully recovered from the Tommy John surgery he underwent in 2024. The New Mexico State product looked sharp in his return to the mound last August, pitching to a 2.53 ERA (2.63 SIERA) and 1.03 WHIP while recording an elite 29.4 percent K-BB% in six starts. It has pushed his price tag up in fantasy drafts, going as the 27th pitcher off the board since the beginning of March, but he may still return value if he can continue to pitch at such a high level.

Baltimore Orioles starting pitcher Kyle Bradish had Tommy John surgery in June of 2024 and finally made his long-awaited return to the mound last August. The right-hander was superb in the six starts that he tallied, posting a 2.53 ERA, 1.03 WHIP, and an elite 29.4 percent K-BB%. In 30 starts back in 2023, the former fourth-rounder pitched to a 2.83 ERA, 1.04 WHIP, and 18.5 percent K-BB%, then logged a 2.75 ERA, 1.07 WHIP, and 23.3 percent K-BB% in his eight starts in 2024, so last year's success appeared to be a continuation of that stretch of dominance. Fantasy managers are hoping the 6-foot-3 hurler can replicate that success in 2026, and he's mostly looked the part through two spring starts. Although he's yielded four runs on seven hits, the New Mexico State product has walked just one while striking out seven in five innings of work. The hype has potentially driven his ADP of 81 into overvalued territory for someone who's made just 14 starts over the last two years and who could be on an innings limit in 2026, however, there is upside as well if he can make around 25 starts and log 150 innings, as fantasy managers would gladly roster a pitcher at that price who can provide 160 strikeouts while chipping in some wins, lowering ERA, and lowering WHIP along the way.

Baltimore Orioles starting pitcher Kyle Bradish is "expecting to be on some kind of innings limit in 2026," according to Matt Weyrich of the Baltimore Sun. Bradish recently recovered from Tommy John surgery, so the Orioles are going to closely monitor his workload to ensure he stays healthy and productive. He was sidelined from June 2024 to August 2025, and he was able to make six starts before the end of the regular season. Across those half-dozen outings, he posted a 2.45 FIP with 13.22 K/9, 2.81 BB/9, and 0.84 HR/9. His ground ball rate declined, but it came over a small sample size, and his results were still as impressive as ever before. Even with the Orioles managing his innings, Bradish projects as the team's ace and ranks as RotoBaller's #21 starting pitcher ahead of 2026 fantasy baseball drafts.

Baltimore Orioles right-hander Kyle Bradish has looked sharp early in camp and was seen striking out first baseman Pete Alonso on Thursday during live batting practice, according to Jake Rill of MLB.com. Although it was a small sample size of only 32 innings over six starts, Bradish looked outstanding in 2025 in his return from Tommy John surgery, allowing only nine earned runs on 23 hits (three homers) while walking 10 and striking out 47. He struck out nine or more hitters in half of his starts for a 37.3% strikeout rate. The 29-year-old surely won't be that dominant over a full season in 2026, but his work last year was extremely encouraging. Since the beginning of 2023, Bradish has a 2.78 ERA (3.03 FIP) and 1.05 WHIP with 268 K's and 69 walks in 240 innings over 44 starts for the O's. He's a nice No. 2 starting pitcher target in fantasy drafts this spring.

Right-hander Kyle Bradish won his salary arbitration hearing with the Baltimore Orioles on Tuesday, a source told Jake Rill of MLB.com. Bradish will make $3.55 million during the 2026 season. The Orioles had submitted a figure of $2.875 million. In his return from Tommy John surgery last year, the 29-year-old went 1-1 with a 2.53 ERA (2.45 FIP) and 1.03 WHIP with 47 strikeouts and 10 walks in 32 innings pitched over just six starts in his fourth year in the big leagues. Although it was a small sample size, Bradish's 37.3% strikeout rate was extremely impressive. He also went five innings in four of his starts and struck out nine or more in three outings. Fantasy managers shouldn't expect Bradish to be that dominant in 2026, but it's hard to argue with his results from the last three seasons (2.78 ERA and 268 K's in 240 innings). Bradish should be a low-end No. 2 target as a starting pitcher in fantasy in 2026.

After undergoing Tommy John surgery in June 2024, Baltimore Orioles starting pitcher Kyle Bradish missed the remainder of the 2024 season and the first four-plus months of 2025. However, the 29-year-old was able to finish the 2025 season on the mound, returning in late August and posting a 2.53 ERA and 1.03 WHIP with 47 strikeouts across 32 innings (six starts). While Bradish's elite 37.3% strikeout rate over a small sample in 2025 may not be sustainable over the course of a full season, it demonstrates his swing-and-miss upside. He recorded strong numbers in his last full campaign in 2023, logging a 12-7 record with a 2.83 ERA, 1.04 WHIP, and 168 strikeouts across 168 2/3 innings (30 starts). Entering 2026, Bradish appears to be fully healthy and should be locked in at the top of the Baltimore rotation. He still carries some health risk, but his strong finish after returning in 2025 should help ease those concerns. Bradish profiles as a solid fantasy SP2 with upside heading into 2026.

Baltimore Orioles right-hander Kyle Bradish continued his successful late-season return from Tommy John surgery on Sunday. The Orioles fell 7-1 to the New York Yankees, but Bradish did his best to pitch the O's to victory. He didn't factor into the decision after firing six innings of one-run, two-hit ball with nine strikeouts and two walks. After missing most of last year and the first four-plus months of this season, Bradish came off the injured list Aug. 26 and has logged ace-like numbers with a 2.25 ERA, a 1.00 WHIP, 39 strikeouts, and 10 walks over five starts and 28 innings. The 29-year-old is scheduled to face the Yankees again in his final start of the season next Sunday.
