Outlook Trey Yesavage
Trey Yesavage navigates rookie growing pains but remains a vital rotation pillar for Toronto.
The 22-year-old rookie has run into some recent control issues, posting a 6.59 ERA and walking 11 batters over his last three starts. Despite these hiccups, he maintains a firm grip as a key mid-rotation starter for the third-place Blue Jays, who are currently riding a two-game winning streak. With Toronto's rotation ravaged by injuries to Dylan Cease and Jose Berrios, Yesavage's volume is incredibly secure.
While his recent walk rate is concerning, Yesavage's overall 2026 numbers—including a 3.25 ERA and 44 strikeouts over 41.5 innings—suggest his elite upside remains intact. Our models project him to finish the year with a 3.82 ERA and 170 strikeouts over 132.0 innings, demonstrating that his early-career success is no fluke. Expect his control to normalize as he continues to adjust to major-league hitters.
Yesavage is scheduled for a single start this week on June 12 at home against the Yankees, facing off against Ryan Weathers. Although the matchup is tough, our models project him to throw 5.2 innings with over five strikeouts and a solid 1.16 WHIP. He is a recommended fantasy option for the week ahead.

Outlook Shane Baz
Shane Baz hits his stride as Baltimore's rotation anchor
After a slow start to the year, Baz has been dominant, posting a superb 1.88 ERA and 1.20 WHIP with 18 strikeouts over his last 14 days. He slots in as a steady starter for the fourth-place Orioles (31-35), who are looking to snap a two-game slide. With several rotation mates like Zach Eflin on the injured list, Baz's role is safer than ever.
While Baz's overall 4.12 ERA reflects early-season bumps, his recent resurgence aligns closely with his high-upside profile and our rest-of-season projection of a 4.13 ERA. His recent step forward in fastball command and the integration of his new sinker suggest his current success is sustainable, even if his WHIP settles closer to his projected 1.25 mark.
Baz is scheduled for a single home start on June 12 against the Padres, drawing a highly favorable matchup against Griffin Canning and his elevated 6.34 ERA. Our models project a strong outing with over five strikeouts and excellent ratio control, making him a premier option. Start him with confidence.
