Sean Manaea News
San Francisco Giants pitcher Sean Manaea has decided to opt out of his $12.5 million deal with the team for the upcoming 2024 season. The left-hander would rather test his value on the open market. The 31-year-old was used in a swingman role for the Giants this past season. He posted a 4.44 ERA, 1.24 WHIP and a 128/42 K/BB ratio across 117 2/3 innings in his 37 appearances (10 starts) with the Giants. It's possible that Manaea declined because he wants to be a full-time starter elsewhere. Regardless, he should be able to land a multi-year deal in free agency.
San Francisco Giants left-hander Sean Manaea is scheduled to make another start for the team this Sunday against the Colorado Rockies at Coors Field. Manaea made his first start since May this past Tuesday against the Cleveland Guardians and allowed three runs (one earned) on two hits while walking two and striking out five in 5 2/3 innings of work for a loss. The 31-year-old could be settling into a starting-rotation spot or at least a bulk-relief role down the stretch for the Gigantes. The matchup against the Rockies this weekend is nice, but the fact that it's at Coors Field shouldn't have fantasy managers interested in the veteran southpaw as a streaming option. Overall in 2023, Manaea is 5-6 with a 4.80 ERA, 1.29 WHIP, one save and 115 K's in 99 1/3 innings over 34 appearances (seven starts).
San Francisco Giants left-hander Sean Manaea will serve as the starter for a matchup on Tuesday against the Cleveland Guardians. It will be Manaea's seventh start of the year but just his first since May 10. Since then, the 31-year-old southpaw has been serving as a long man out of the bullpen, so he's not going to be a favorable fantasy play despite the above-average matchup. Manaea hasn't been very effective in his first year in the Bay Area, going 5-5 with a 5.00 ERA (4.08 FIP), 1.32 WHIP, one save, 40 walks and 110 strikeouts in 93 1/3 innings over 33 appearances (six starts) in 2023. Jakob Junis or Alex Wood could cover the bulk of the innings on Tuesday if Manaea doesn't make it very far in his start.

Oakland Athletics pitcher Sean Manaea posted an 11-10 record, 3.91 ERA, 1.23 WHIP, and a career-high 194 strikeouts over 179 1/3 innings in 2021. The 30-year-old owned a solid 25.7 K% but had trouble keeping the ball in the yard, evidenced by allowing a career-worst 1.25 HR:9 last season. To put hitters away, he relied primarily on three pitches, a sinker, changeup, and curveball. The 30-year-old could join the next tier in starters if he's able to continue to rack up the strikeouts, limit the home runs, and keep up his impressive low walk rate (last year's 5.4 BB% was in the 89th percentile). Cutter projects the lefty to own a 3.84 ERA, 1.20 WHIP, 15 quality starts, and 158 strikeouts over 166 frames in 2022. According to Rotoballer's Expected Draft Values, Cutter's projections for Manaea put him roughly fair value at his ADP of 158. Manaea is a solid mid-round pick that should provide stable ratios and excellent strikeout totals for fantasy managers in 2022.
