Alex Vesia delivered a flawless performance, securing a save as the Dodgers topped the Marlins 6-3.
Fantasy Impact
He threw 13 pitches over a clean inning, allowing no hits or walks and striking out one batter. This outing, marking his first save of the season, underscores a trend of reliability in high-pressure situations. Despite a solid ERA of 1.56, his FIP at 4.70 suggests some luck involved, and his BABIP of .182 might be unsustainably low, indicating potential regression. Fantasy managers should value his contributions but remain cautious of his peripheral metrics which hint at possible future inconsistencies.
The Dodgers recalled LHP Alex Vesia from Triple-A Oklahoma City.
Fantasy Impact
Vesia will take the roster spot of Gavin Stone, who was optioned to Triple-A Tuesday. The 27-year-old carried a 4.66 ERA and a 1.55 WHIP in 10 outs in with Triple-A Oklahoma City.
The Los Angeles Dodgers have announced they have optioned left-hander Alex Vesia to Triple-A on Wednesday.
Fantasy Impact
In a corresponding move, right-hander Gavin Stone has had his contract selected by the big club. It's been a struggle for Vesia as he owns a 7.84 ERA through 13 appearances after working to a tidy 2.15 mark across 63 appearances last season. HIs 3.46 FIP and 3.91 SIERA suggest he's been better than his surface results might suggest but he'll nonetheless head to the minors in search of some more confidence before likely returning to the Dodgers in the not-too-distant future.
Alex Vesia pitched 1 1/3 innings on Sunday, striking out two, and walking one as he gave up zero runs and went on to earn the win for the Dodgers in a 9-4 game against the Padres.
Fantasy Impact
The win Sunday was Vesia's fourth of the season, and he has yet to take a loss as he remains a perfect 4-0 on the year. The Dodgers' reliever has been dominant on the mound this season pitching to the tune of an 2.42 ERA with a WHIP of 1.19. The 26-year-old is a cusp fantasy asset as he does not pitch in positions to earn many saves, however he does have good strikeout totals having punched out 63 batters over 44 2/3 innings.
Alex Vesia pitched one inning on Wednesday, striking out two as he went on to earn the win for the Dodgers in a 7-1 game against the Nationals.
Fantasy Impact
Vesia earned his third win of the season Wednesday as he now pitches to the tune of a 3.41 ERA with a WHIP of 1.36. The Dodgers reliever should not be rostered at the moment as he is more useful in real life than fantasy with just one save on the season and three wins.
