Outlook David Sandlin

David Sandlin's historic debut makes him a highly intriguing two-start streaming option this week.

David Sandlin made a historic splash in his major-league debut last week, retiring 18 straight batters after allowing a leadoff home run to secure a win. The rookie right-hander was recalled to the big leagues after Noah Schultz landed on the injured list, and he currently slots in as a back-end option in the rotation. His presence boosts a second-place White Sox team currently riding a five-game winning streak.

While Sandlin's initial big-league sample size features a spectacular 1.50 ERA and a microscopic 0.17 WHIP, our models expect some regression toward a 4.50 ERA and 1.33 WHIP over the rest of the season. However, his strong strikeout-to-walk ratio in the minor leagues and his projection of 80 strikeouts over a projected 18 innings suggest immense missing-bat upside.

Sandlin is scheduled for a two-start week, beginning Monday on the road against division rival Minnesota before facing Philadelphia on Sunday. While the Twins present a tough matchup against Joe Ryan, the Phillies matchup is friendlier as Aaron Nola has struggled with a 5.72 ERA. Given the dual-start volume and his high ceiling, Sandlin is a recommended Two-Start Stream.

Outlook Brayan Bello

Brayan Bello finds his groove with scoreless streak as matchups turn favorable

Bello has rebounded dramatically of late, delivering 12.0 scoreless innings with 10 strikeouts and a sparkling 1.08 WHIP over his last two outings. This surge is a welcome sight for the last-place Red Sox, who sit at 25-33 but are currently riding a two-game win streak. With rotation depth severely tested by injuries to Garrett Crochet and Tanner Houck, Bello remains locked in as the team's number two starter.

While his overall 5.84 ERA and 1.71 WHIP on the year look frightening, his stellar 2.69 ERA over the last 30 days shows he is correcting course. Our models project him to finish the year with a much more stable 4.10 ERA and 1.33 WHIP, which aligns closely with his solid 2025 campaign. Fantasy managers should trust this recent stretch of improved command as a return to his true talent level.

Bello is scheduled for a single start this week on June 4th at home against Baltimore. He faces Trevor Rogers, who carries a shaky 6.84 ERA, making this a highly favorable matchup for the surging right-hander. Our weekly models project a strong seven-inning performance with a 2.31 ERA, making Bello a confident option to insert into active lineups. Verdict: Start.
