Rangers manager Bruce Bochy said that Cody Bradford could be an option out of the bullpen.
Fantasy Impact
Bradford is expected to command some sort of role with the Rangers pitching staff. He will be competing with Jon Gray, Kumar Rocker and Jack Leiter for one of the final spots in the Rangers starting rotation.
Cody Bradford navigated through 3.2 innings, allowing one earned run on six hits and three walks while striking out four in Wednesday's 5-1 win over the Athletics.
Fantasy Impact
Despite a relatively short outing, Bradford managed to keep his team in a position to win, limiting the damage to just one run. His performance this season has been commendable, boasting a 3.54 ERA and a 1.01 WHIP over 13 starts. His ability to maintain a high strikeout-to-walk ratio (5.38) and a decent K/9 rate (8.3) continues to make him a reliable option in fantasy leagues, particularly in formats that value WHIP and strikeout efficiency. While the short start might not rack up many points in innings-pitched categories, his overall stability helps balance fantasy rosters looking for consistent starting pitching.
Cody Bradford dazzled against the Blue Jays on Wednesday, tossing seven scoreless innings, allowing just five hits with no walks and striking out six in a 2-0 victory.
Fantasy Impact
This performance underscores a season of solid starts for Bradford, who now boasts a 3.59 ERA and a 0.94 WHIP through 13 starts. His ability to maintain a high strikeout-to-walk ratio (6.60) and a low BABIP (.240) suggests that while he's been somewhat lucky, he's also effectively managing contact. Fantasy managers should continue to view Bradford as a reliable option, particularly in matchups where control and strikeout potential are key. His consistent performance could be a difference-maker in fantasy lineups, especially in leagues that reward precision and efficiency from pitchers.
Cody Bradford endured a rough outing, allowing eight earned runs on nine hits while striking out four over 3.2 innings in Wednesday's 14-4 loss to the Diamondbacks.
Fantasy Impact
This performance was a stark departure from his otherwise solid season. He now has a 3.97 ERA and a 0.96 WHIP after this performance. The significant damage to his ERA and the spike in his WHIP from this game could raise concerns among fantasy managers about his reliability down the stretch. Given the drastic nature of this setback, it might be wise to monitor his next few starts closely before confidently slotting him back into fantasy lineups.
Cody Bradford delivered a strong performance in Thursday's 3-1 win over the Angels, allowing just one earned run on two hits and two walks while striking out four over six innings.
Fantasy Impact
This outing continues a season of solid performances for Bradford, who now boasts a 3.05 ERA and a 0.87 WHIP across 10 starts. His ability to limit base runners, as evidenced by his low WHIP and BABIP, along with a respectable strikeout rate of 8.1 K/9, makes him a reliable option in fantasy leagues. Bradford's consistent performance, highlighted by a strong strikeout-to-walk ratio, should keep him relevant in fantasy rotations, especially in deeper leagues or those that value pitching metrics like FIP and WHIP.
