Brandon Young looks to carry recent momentum into a road matchup at Coors Field
Young rebounded emphatically in his last start, tossing seven innings of one-run ball to lower his 14-day ERA to 3.89 across 16.2 frames. The right-hander has cemented himself as a mid-rotation staple for a 68-69 Baltimore squad currently riding a three-game winning streak. After navigating minor finger discomfort and a career-high workload earlier in the month, he appears back in peak form.
Young’s breakout 2026 campaign features a 3.70 ERA and nine wins over 126.2 innings, representing a massive leap from his 6.45 ERA in 2025. While our models anticipate some ratio regression toward a 4.50 ERA due to a 1.38 WHIP and pitch-to-contact style, his consistency and quality-start ability keep him firmly fantasy relevant.
Young is scheduled for a single start this week on Wednesday on the road against Colorado, squaring off against Tomoyuki Sugano and his 5.47 ERA. While pitching in Denver brings inherent ratio danger, the favorable opposing pitching matchup and Young's current form make him a worthy lineup play. Start.
