Zack Thompson Stats

St. Louis Cardinals starting pitcher Zack Thompson is scheduled to make his first career start against the Pittsburgh Pirates on Monday. The 24-year-old has only made one appearance since joining the big league roster. He allowed one run during four innings of work in his MLB debut. The expectation is that Thompson will be on a pitch count on Monday. Despite that, Thompson could have some streaming appeal against the lackluster Pirates lineup.

St. Louis Cardinals pitching prospect Zack Thompson struggled in Tuesday's start for Triple-A Memphis. The left-hander only got two outs and allowed four hits, six runs (three earned), two walks and recorded one strikeout. Thompson just didn't have it on Tuesday, but he has shown a drastic improvement in 2022 from 2021. The 24-year-old's biggest issue throughout his young career has been command, but he has made big jumps this year and is 2-2 with a 4.67 ERA and 1.15 WHIP to go along with 56 strikeouts in 44 1/3 innings, but Tuesday's start put a big dent in his overall season stats. Thompson was passed over by fellow pitching prospect Matthew Liberatore for a big-league promotion earlier in May, but there is a chance that Thompson could make his debut at some point in 2022. Due to his inconsistency, Thompson is a better option in dynasty leagues than redraft leagues at the moment.
