Matthew Liberatore is expected to enter spring training as a starter for the Cardinals.
Fantasy Impact
Liberatore made six starts last season, but he spent most of the year in the bullpen for St. Louis. He'll add depth to the starting rotation for the Cardinals.
Matthew Liberatore had a rough outing in Wednesday's 5-0 loss to the Pirates.
Fantasy Impact
He allowed five earned runs on four hits and three walks while striking out three over three innings. This performance marks a continuation of a somewhat shaky season for Liberatore, whose ERA ballooned to 4.75 and WHIP edged up to 1.27. Given these numbers and his 7.2 K/9 ratio, fantasy managers might find him a risky play, especially in leagues that heavily penalize earned runs or walks. His 4.46 FIP suggests some underlying issues that haven't improved, and his strikeout-to-walk ratio remains less than ideal. Owners should consider other options or monitor his progress closely before committing to starting him in future matchups.
Matthew Liberatore delivered a stellar performance in Wednesday's 4-1 win against the Braves.
Fantasy Impact
He tossed six scoreless innings, allowing just two hits and one walk while striking out eight. This outing was a significant improvement for Liberatore, who entered the game with a somewhat inflated 3.86 ERA and a 1.15 WHIP for the season. His ability to suppress runs while maintaining a high strikeout rate in this game could signal a turning point, potentially lowering his ERA and boosting his fantasy value. Owners should note his improved command and effectiveness, which, if consistent, might make him a more reliable option in fantasy rotations.
Matthew Liberatore is the scheduled starter for the second game of the doubleheader with the Braves Wednesday.
Fantasy Impact
Liberatore will make his fifth start of the season in the night game of the doubleheader with the Braves. The 24-year-old has a 4.46 ERA and a 1.25 WHIP in 26 appearances this season.
Matthew Liberatore lasted just 3.2 innings, allowing two earned runs on three hits and one walk while striking out one in Wednesday's 4-3 loss to the Marlins.
Fantasy Impact
This outing did little to reassure fantasy managers about Liberatore's reliability, as his season ERA nudged up to 4.46 and his WHIP remained steady at 1.25. With a modest strikeout rate of 6.6 K/9 and a FIP of 4.67 that suggests his struggles are somewhat deserved, Liberatore's fantasy value is shaky at best. Owners should consider him a risky play, primarily in deeper leagues or as a streaming option against less formidable lineups.
