Reiver Sanmartin

Reiver Sanmartin was optioned to Triple-A after his start on Sunday against the Rockies, during which he allowed six runs on six hits and two walks in 2/3 of an inning.

Fantasy Impact

The Reds needed to trim their roster to 26, and Sanmartin's 13.78 ERA and 2.27 WHIP made the choice to option him pretty easy. He does have a 4.76 xFIP, suggesting that perhaps he hasn't been quite as bad as his numbers suggest, but there's absolutely no reason to hold him now in any format.

Reds starter Reiver Sanmartin was tagged for a whopping nine runs over three innings of work against the Padres on Tuesday. He was responsible for eight hits, one walk, and two strikeouts in the process. He earned the loss as Cincinnati ultimately fell to San Diego by a score of 9-6.

Fantasy Impact

Sanmartin is now 0-3 with an alarming 10.91 ERA this season. He should not be rostered in any formats.

Reiver Sanmartin allowed nine runs on eight hits and a walk over three innings on Tuesday against the Padres. He struck out two and took the loss, falling to 0-3.

Fantasy Impact

Sanmartin now has a 10.91 ERA and a 1.85 WHIP, with just 10 strikeouts in 15 2/3 innings. He's generally tough on lefties but doesn't have the pure stuff to consistently pitch in a rotation right now. Depending on when Luis Castillo returns, Sanmartin could be optioned to the minors or find himself in a bullpen role. Either way, he's not helping anyone's fantasy team at the moment, so managers certainly shouldn't start him in Colorado later this week.

Reds starter Reiver Sanmartin allowed five runs eight hits over 5 1/3 innings of work against the Padres on Tuesday. He issued one walk and four strikeouts in the process. The 26-year-old southpaw was hit with the loss as Cincinnati ultimately fell to San Diego by a score of 6-2.

Fantasy Impact

Sanmartin is 0-2 with a 7.11 ERA, 1.58 WHIP, and .292 OBA through three games (two starts) spanning 12 2/3 innings. He has walked six batters and struck out eight along the way. Sanmartin is not a reliable fantasy option whatsoever.

Reds starter Reiver Sanmartin had a shaky outing on Friday. He allowed five runs on four hits and five walks while failing to escape the third inning. The southpaw was hit with the loss as Cincinnati fell to Atlanta by a score of 7-6.

Fantasy Impact

Sanmartin allowed just two runs through 11.2 innings last year. Although it was a small sample size, he gave the Reds significant reason to be excited heading into 2022. There's still plenty of time to bounce back from this rough outing, but it was concerning nonetheless. Sanmartin is only worth consideration in the deepest of leagues.
