Mason Thompson News
Washington Nationals pitcher Mason Thompson was optioned to Triple-A Rochester on Wednesday. He was sent down to the minors to open a roster spot for newly claimed Jake McGee. Thompson owned a 1.13 ERA, 1.00 WHIP, and seven strikeouts over eight innings in 2022. The 24-year-old could get the call to the big leagues when rosters expand in September. McGee has a 7.00 ERA and 1.52 WHIP with 15 strikeouts over 27 innings in 30 appearances with the Giants and Brewers in 2022. The 36-year-old is expected to serve in a middle-relief role for the Nationals and won't have much fantasy value forward.
The Washington Nationals placed right-hander Mason Thompson (biceps) on the 10-day injured list on Sunday with a right biceps strain and recalled reliever Hunter Harvey from Triple-A Rochester in a corresponding move. Thompson was injured during his outing on Saturday against the New York Mets. The 24-year-old has tossed one scoreless inning so far this year, allowing two walks while striking out three. Harvey will serve in a middle-relief role for the Nationals and won't have any fantasy value. The 27-year-old right-hander has never been able to get on track due to injuries, but he does have a decent 3.42 career ERA with 23 strikeouts in 23 2/3 big-league innings.
San Diego Padres relief pitchers Nick Ramirez and Mason Thompson have been recalled from the minors on Sunday. The Padres will get a few fresh arms out of their bullpen, but fantasy managers don't need to worry much about them. Ramirez likely won't last too long on the active roster and has struggled during his time with the team this season. Thompson is one of the better relief prospects in the MLB. However, he'll likely be eased into higher leverage roles, so he won't have much fantasy impact right away. Thompson has a chance at being the future closer, but will need to earn that role.
