Outlook Dylan Lee
Dylan Lee Dominating in High-Leverage Setup Role for First-Place Braves
Dylan Lee has been virtually untouchable lately, posting a 1.48 ERA and an elite 0.66 WHIP with nine strikeouts over his last 6.1 innings. He is pitching in high-leverage spots for the first-place Braves, who lead the NL East with a 45-21 record and are currently riding a three-game winning streak. With Joe Jimenez on the injured list, Lee has locked down his role as Atlanta's premier setup option.
This sensational run is no fluke, as Lee has dominated all year to the tune of a 1.28 ERA, a 0.68 WHIP, and an elite 12.17 K/9 rate over 28.1 innings. While our models project a moderate rest-of-season regression toward a 3.55 ERA and 1.17 WHIP, his current command and high-strikeout upside make him far more valuable than his career baselines suggest.
Atlanta travels for six games this week against the White Sox and Mets. Our weekly model projects Lee to throw three innings with 3.2 strikeouts and 1.4 holds. He remains a top-tier late-inning weapon who should see plenty of close-game opportunities. Start him with confidence in all holds and ratios-focused formats.

Outlook Tyler Rogers
Rogers Shines in High-Leverage Setup Role for Blue Jays
Tyler Rogers has been outstanding lately, delivering 3.1 scoreless innings with a microscopic 0.32 WHIP, one win, and two saves over his last three appearances. The third-place Blue Jays (32-34) are riding a two-game win streak and leaning heavily on Rogers with bullpen mates Yimi Garcia and Joe Mantiply sidelined on the injured list. He is locked in as the primary late-inning setup option in Toronto's bullpen.
Rogers' superb run is backed by a strong 2.32 ERA and 1.14 WHIP on the season. While our models project minor regression to a 3.63 ERA and 1.21 WHIP rest-of-season, his career-long ability to prevent walks ensures this success is sustainable. He remains a premier source of ratios and holds, even with a modest strikeout rate.
Toronto plays six home games this week, welcoming the Phillies and the Yankees to town. This challenging slate of matchups against potent offenses should yield plenty of close late-inning situations, providing ample setup and hold opportunities. For managers in holds leagues, Rogers is an excellent active option. Verdict: Start.
