Rays Setup Man Ian Seymour Struggles with Control Amid Bullpen Injuries
Seymour has hit a rough patch, struggling to a 12.00 ERA and a 2.33 WHIP over his last three innings. The first-place Rays have dropped three straight and are dealing with a right wrist strain to closer Craig Kimbrel. With Kimbrel on the injured list, Seymour has stepped up as the primary setup option in the Tampa Bay bullpen.
His current 6.04 season ERA is disappointing compared to his solid 3.88 ERA from last year, but our models expect him to settle in with a 3.95 ERA rest-of-season. Seymour has elite strikeout upside, but his seven walks over his last 6.2 innings indicate that control issues are driving his recent struggles.
The Rays wrap up the week with a three-game road series in Miami, where they will face Tyler Phillips and Sandy Alcantara. Seymour will get a chance to get back on track in pitcher-friendly matchups, but his elevated ratios make him too risky to deploy right now. Verdict: Sit.

Toolsy prospect offers intriguing power-speed blend in Colorado's high-altitude environment
Beck entered the 2026 campaign looking to secure an everyday role in the Rockies' outfield hierarchy. At 25 years old, the former competitive-balance pick possesses a tantalizing blend of raw power and speed that plays up beautifully in the thin air of Coors Field. Despite some swing-and-miss tendencies in his profile, his secure spot in the depth chart guarantees consistent playing time and ample opportunity to refine his approach against major-league pitching.
According to our projections, Beck is slated to provide decent power with 14 home runs, 50 RBI, and a helpful chip-in of 9 stolen bases across 383 at-bats. While his projected .238 batting average and .299 on-base percentage reflect his ongoing contact struggles, his run-producing environment should keep his counting stats afloat. Fantasy managers can expect a neutral-to-slight asset in home runs and speed, balanced by a batting average risk that requires surrounding support in rotisserie and head-to-head categories.
Beck represents a classic high-upside, late-round flier in standard drafts. His ultimate fantasy value hinges on his ability to curb the strikeouts and capitalize on Coors Field's massive outfield gaps. For managers seeking a power-speed sleeper with daily home-field advantages, Beck is an excellent target to round out your bench.
