Logan Webb Tosses Quality Start In 13th Win Tuesday
San Francisco Giants starting pitcher Logan Webb finished the 2024 season on a high note in Tuesday's 11-0 win over the Diamondbacks. Webb pitched six innings, allowing four hits and a walk with three strikeouts. The 27-year-old performed pretty much as fantasy managers expected this season, going 13-10 with a 3.58 ERA, a 1.23 WHIP, and a 7.56 K/9 rate in 33 starts and 204 2/3 IP. While his numbers were all within his career ranges, his ERA, BABIP, and WHIP were the highest they had been since his 2020 season and his K/9 rate was a career-low. Fantasy managers shouldn't be too surprised, as Webb is a pitch-to-contact, ground-ball pitcher. However, he had done a good job of suppressing hits in each of the previous three seasons. Webb has proven himself to be a high-floor fantasy option with a limited ceiling, making him a safe fantasy option.
San Francisco Giants right-hander Logan Webb stepped up for the Giants on Thursday at Oracle Park to prevent a four-game sweep at the hands of the Atlanta Braves. Webb was on point to pick up his 11th victory of the season, throwing 7 2/3 shutout innings while allowing four hits, walking one and striking out seven to lower his season ERA to 3.17. The 27-year-old former fourth-round pick in 2014 is on an outstanding run for the Gigantes, allowing only two earned runs on 17 hits while walking six and striking out 25 in 28 innings in his last four starts. Webb had a 20.5% strikeout rate coming into his outing on Thursday, which isn't ideal for fantasy managers, but despite that, he's having another workmanlike campaign in 2024. He'll be a must-start in his next outing against the worst team in baseball, the Chicago White Sox.
San Francisco Giants starting pitcher Logan Webb fired a complete-game shutout with six strikeouts in Wednesday night's victory over the visiting crosstown-rival Oakland Athletics at Oracle Park. Webb authored a stellar performance against a hapless Oakland lineup on Wednesday, scattering five hits and a lone walk en route to his eighth win of the campaign. It was a timely rebound showing for San Francisco's ace, who finishes the month of July with a weak 4.78 ERA and 1.47 WHIP with 24 punchouts and 10 walks over 32 frames (five starts). Webb is slated to get the ball next in a soft draw in Wednesday's tilt against the hosting Washington Nationals at Nationals Park, where he will aim to stay on track on the heels of this dominant effort.

Webb's only run allowed was unearned, and he left with a 3-1 lead that was blown in the ninth inning. He only gave up three hits and one walk while striking out a season-high eight. He has now allowed two or less earned runs in four straight starts while working at least six innings in each of them. This is the workhorse that fantasy managers expected when they drafted him with a top 50 pick.

Logan Webb Throws Six Shutout Innings Versus Dodgers
San Francisco Giants starting pitcher Logan Webb picked up his fourth win of the season on Wednesday in a 4-1 victory over the Dodgers. Webb threw six shutout innings, allowing just three hits and three walks (also one HBP) while striking out five. The 27-year-old now has a 3.03 ERA, 1.35 WHIP, and a 12.0% K-BB% on the year. While the low strikeout rate is a bit disappointing (18.7%) and his walks are up over last year (6.8% vs 3.6%), he's limited batters to just two home runs in 59 1/3 IP. The righty will take on a Pittsburgh team on the road his next time out. The Pirates have scored the fifth-fewest runs in the league to this point.
San Francisco Giants right-hander Logan Webb had another rough outing Sunday in the 5-4 loss against the Philadelphia Phillies. Webb threw for four innings on Sunday, allowing five runs, one homer, and six hits, with six strikeouts and two walks. This makes it his second straight game where he was pulled early after allowing multiple runs. The 27-year-old right-handed pitcher recorded two clean starts before the Boston Red Sox series but has taken a turn for the worst. He now owns a 3.50 ERA, 1.46 WHIP, and a 36: 12 K: BB across 46 1/3 innings in 2024. Webb's next projected start is against the Cincinnati Reds on Thursday, and they hold a batting average of .210 against right-handed pitchers, giving Webb a perfect bounce-back spot as a streaming option for fantasy managers.

Webb pitched just 3 2/3 innings, allowing four runs on nine hits and three walks with four strikeouts. Despite the poor outing, the 27-year-old has pitched well to start the season, going 3-2 with a 2.98 ERA, a 6.38 K/9 rate, and a 2.13 BB/9 rate in seven starts. He will look to rebound in his next scheduled start, which will be a middling matchup at the Phillies.

Webb had his best outing on the year in this one, twirling seven shutout frames while allowing just two hits. He also walked one and struck out five in the dominant performance.

He should keep being exactly that, and should seldom leave fantasy lineups.
