Yency Almonte Stats

Los Angeles Dodgers relief pitcher Yency Almonte (elbow) has been placed on the 15-day injured list. It's uncertain how the right-hander suffered the injury, but this is a huge blow to the Dodgers bullpen. He currently holds a 1.15 ERA, 0.89 WHIP and 30/10 K/BB ratio over 31 1/3 innings. In a corresponding move, the Dodgers have recalled right-hander Andre Jackson from Triple-A. The loss of Almonte won't change much for fantasy managers. Although, the Dodgers bullpen will take a hit with Almonte unavailable for a few weeks.

Los Angeles Dodgers relief pitcher Yency Almonte picked up his first save of the season in Monday's 5-3 win over the Rockies. Almonte entered the game up by three with two outs in the ninth inning and runners on first and second. He allowed an inherited runner to score on a single but got the final out with a strikeout. This seems like a rare opportunity for Almonte, as Craig Kimbrel (back) is day-to-day after being hit in the back on Sunday and Monday's save opportunity arose late in the game, as opposed to being a traditional opportunity the team could plan for. He does have a 1.74 ERA in 20 2/3 innings pitched, but doesn't hold any fantasy value at this time.

Colorado Rockies reliever Yency Almonte took the loss on Thursday when he surrendered three runs on three hits over 1 1/3 innings of relief in a 6-5 loss to the Atlanta Braves. Chi Chi Gonzalez started this game and lasted 3 2/3 innings before handing the ball over to Almonte. The Rockies held a brief 5-3 lead before Almonte gave up a sacrifice fly to Dansby Swanson and a two-run homer to Adam Duvall. The Braves reclaimed the lead and Colorado was shut out for the remainder of the game, giving the 27-year-old righty his third loss of the season. It's been a rough season for Almonte, who was one of the Rockies' most reliable relievers during the shortened 2020 campaign. He's got a horrendous 8.41 ERA, 1.62 WHIP, and 38:26 K/BB ratio over 40 2/3 innings of relief on the year. Obviously, there's no fantasy value here whatsoever.
