Andrew Chafin’s minor league deal with the Tigers last month could threaten Brant Hurter’s bullpen spot as camp wraps up, per team reports.
Fantasy Impact
Hurter shined in his 2024 MLB debut—2.58 ERA, 0.88 WHIP over 45.1 innings—but the 34-year-old Chafin brings a veteran edge that might sway Detroit to slot him alongside lefties Tyler Holton and Sean Guenther. Hurter’s likely still got the upper hand, though a few sharp spring outings could lock it down. Fantasy managers in deeper leagues should monitor this—his roster fate could swing his relief value.
Brant Hurter allowed one earned run and struck out one over four innings in the Tigers' 4-1 win against the White Sox on Friday.
Fantasy Impact
His performance was efficient, keeping his ERA low at 2.58 and WHIP at 0.88 for the season. Despite a modest strikeout total, Hurter's ability to limit base runners and control the game continues to make him a reliable option in deeper fantasy leagues, especially in formats that reward low WHIP and ERA. His consistent performance this season, highlighted by a strong strikeout-to-walk ratio and low BABIP, suggests he could be a sneaky play for fantasy managers looking for stability in their pitching staffs.
Brant Hurter dazzled against the Orioles, tossing 5 2/3 hitless innings with eight strikeouts in a tight 1-0 victory for the Tigers.
Fantasy Impact
He walked just one batter and allowed no runs, maintaining his role as a key player in Detroit's bullpen. This performance not only underscores Hurter's ability to handle pressure situations but also significantly bolsters his fantasy value. With a season ERA now even more impressive and a WHIP that continues to shrink, Hurter is shaping up to be a valuable option in leagues. His high strikeout rates coupled with excellent control make him a potential difference-maker as the season progresses.
Brant Hurter allowed one run over 5 1/3 innings in the Tigers' 2-1 win against the Athletics on Saturday.
Fantasy Impact
He gave up four hits, walked one, and struck out three. This performance continues a trend of effective outings for Hurter, maintaining a strong season with a 3.00 ERA and a 0.94 WHIP. His ability to limit walks and keep runners off base, as evidenced by his 7.25 strikeout-to-walk ratio and .258 BABIP, should keep him relevant in fantasy circles, especially in formats that reward WHIP and ERA. While he's not a high-strikeout option, his consistency in limiting damage makes him a viable option for those in deeper leagues or as a streaming choice against favorable matchups.
Brant Hurter earned the win Tuesday, allowing two earned runs on four hits and two walks while striking out four over five innings as the Tigers topped the Angels 6-2.
Fantasy Impact
This performance marks a continuation of Hurter's effective season, characterized by a strong 3.57 ERA and a 0.88 WHIP. His ability to maintain a high strikeout-to-walk ratio (7.00) suggests that he can be a reliable asset in fantasy lineups, especially in leagues that value WHIP and strikeouts. While the sample size is still relatively small, Hurter's consistency in limiting runs and base runners positions him as a potentially underrated option moving forward.
