Matt Strahm

The Phillies and Matt Strahm have agreed to a one-year contract extension, with a club option for 2026.

Fantasy Impact

The veteran reliever was set to hit free agency after this season, but is now tied to the Phillies for at least one more season. The left-hander posted a 3.29 ERA and a 1.02 WHIP in 56 appearances last season.

Matt Strahm struggled in his start against the Diamondbacks, allowing four hits and a walk, which led to three earned runs in just 2 2/3 innings pitched.

Fantasy Impact

Despite the weak effort, Strahm has had a nice season. His 4.00 ERA is solid but the lefty also owns a 3.58 FIP, 3.23 SIERA and a 23.4% K-BB% on the campaign.

Strahm allowed three hits and two earned runs while striking out three batters over two innings of work.

Fantasy Impact

Strahm has been a solid contributor out of the Phillies bullpen this season, posting a 3.09 ERA and 12.86 K/9 across 12 appearances.

Matt Strahm tossed two scoreless innings en route to a save in Sunday's 6-1 win over the Red Sox.

Fantasy Impact

Following six starts, Strahm worked out of the Phillies' bullpen for the first time since Opening Day and just the second time this season Sunday afternoon. The lefty came on to pitch the top of the eighth with a 4-1 lead, which grew to 6-1 in the bottom of the eighth. Strahm would stay in the game to work the ninth and come away with a save. He registered three punchouts on the day, bringing his total to 40 across 28 2/3 total innings. He is expected to move forward in a relief role from here.

Matt Strahm worked 3 1/3 innings in Tuesday's 13-1 loss to the Dodgers, allowing four runs on six hits and a walk while striking out five.

Fantasy Impact

Strahm kept the strikeouts coming Tuesday night, but he was unable to keep the Dodgers off the scoreboard. The lefty gave up runs in three of the four innings in which he worked, raising his season ERA over a full point from 2.31 to 3.38. Strahm was limited to just 73 pitches in this outing and has not thrown more than 82 in any of his six starts. He's been quite useful for fantasy purposes despite that, but with Ranger Suarez now rehabbing in the minors, Strahm could be on his way out of the rotation and into the bullpen within the next couple of weeks. Still, he is slated to start Tuesday against the Blue Jays in Philadelphia.
