Outlook Trevor Rogers
Trevor Rogers provides back-end rotation stability for the contending Orioles
Rogers has shown flashes of his former self lately, posting a pair of quality starts over his last three outings. He is firmly entrenched as a mid-rotation starter for an Orioles squad that is currently riding a wave of momentum in a tight AL East race. While his strikeout numbers haven't reached his peak levels, he has done a commendable job of keeping the ball in the yard and navigating through deep counts.
Comparing his recent stretch to our season-long projections, Rogers is performing exactly as our models anticipated. He is currently a pitch-to-contact lefty who relies on a heavy dose of sliders and changeups to keep hitters off balance. While he may not return to his career-best ceiling this year, his current floor is much higher than his previous season, making him a reliable volume provider for managers in deeper formats.
The week ahead presents a difficult road test against a high-scoring divisional opponent in a hitter-friendly park. Given the potential for a blow-up start against such a disciplined lineup, fantasy managers should exercise caution if they have safer alternatives on their bench. While the win potential remains high due to Baltimore's potent offense, the risk to your weekly ERA and WHIP makes him a marginal play this time around. Sit.

Outlook Trey Yesavage
Trey Yesavage regains dominant form as a fixture in the Blue Jays rotation
Yesavage has been lights-out recently, posting a 1.45 ERA and a microscopic 0.48 WHIP over his last seven days. He currently slots in as a back-end starter for a third-place Toronto squad (41-46) that has been decimated by injuries to rotation anchors like Jose Berrios and Max Scherzer. Our data shows his command is peaking at the right time following early-season shoulder impingement issues.
While a 5.02 ERA over the last 30 days suggests some volatility, his season-long 3.46 ERA is actually outperforming our projection of 3.82. The young right-hander’s 1.14 WHIP indicates he is limiting traffic more effectively than our models anticipated, though his current 8.45 K/9 is lower than the high-strikeout upside seen in his career stats and season-long trajectory.
As a two-start pitcher this week, Yesavage already secured a win against the Mets and will wrap up the week with a Sunday road start against Seattle. Our models view the remaining matchup as favorable given the Mariners' high strikeout rate, making Yesavage a high-upside play to close out the scoring period. Start.
