Will Klein | Fantasy Outlook

Will Klein continues to anchor a depleted Dodgers bullpen with high-leverage efficiency

Klein has been reliable lately, posting a 2.09 ERA and 1.16 WHIP over his last 14 days of work. The first-place Dodgers (61-36) are currently weathering a three-game losing streak and dealing with a wave of injuries to key relievers like Edwin Diaz and Blake Treinen. Despite these absences, Klein has solidified his role as a primary high-leverage arm in the relief corps, which is vital for a team missing several high-profile pitchers.

His 2.74 ERA through 32 games this season significantly outperforms our 4.30 ERA season projection, though his 1.55 WHIP suggests some regression could be looming if the traffic on the bases continues. However, his elite strikeout ability—averaging nearly 12 strikeouts per nine innings—gives him the punch to escape the jams his walks occasionally create. For now, he remains a valuable source of holds and a key high-leverage asset in leagues that reward relief depth.

The Dodgers travel to face the second-place Yankees for a three-game set starting Friday. Our models project Klein to pitch approximately 3.2 innings this week with a 1.72 ERA and nearly four strikeouts across his anticipated appearances. While facing a strong New York offense is a challenge, the potential for high-leverage opportunities in a competitive series makes him a solid fantasy play for managers needing strikeout volume and holds. Start.
