Robbie Erlin News
The Los Angeles Dodgers and relief pitcher Robbie Erlin have agreed to a minor league deal, according to Baseball America. Erlin last pitched for the Atlanta Braves and Pittsburgh Pirates in 2020 where he compiled a 5.40 ERA with four strikeouts in two appearances across 3 1/3 innings pitched. It has not yet been determined what type of role Erlin could have with the Dodgers in 2022, but he should not be considered fantasy relevant until further notice.
The Atlanta Braves are bringing back left-handed pitcher Sean Newcomb from the clubs alternate training site, designating southpaw Robbie Erlin to make room on the active roster. Newcomb last appeared for Atlanta on Aug. 10, and has been walloped in four starts this season with 17 runs allowed in 13 frames. But after Erlin yielded five in 1 IP during Thursdays start, the club was forced to look elsewhere for production. In nine appearances with Atlanta, Erlin struck out 25 batters in 26 IP, but also posted an 8.10 ERA. Newcomb has displayed success in the rotation (3.90 ERA in 2018) and in the bullpen (3.16 ERA in 19) in the past, although what he brings to the table over the final two-plus weeks remains up in the air from a fantasy perspective.
Atlanta Braves starter Robbie Erlin allowed five runs on six hits across four innings of work during Wednesday's 7-5 win over the Boston Red Sox. He struck out three batters while walking two. The 29-year-old owns a 7.23 ERA through 18 2/3 innings this season and is only in the rotation due to a multitude of pitching injuries. He is the definition of a fantasy afterthought.
