Urias is going to get another start on Sunday, and could work his way into the postseason rotation mix. He’s closing in on a career high in innings pitched, and while we’d like to see him get back to his groundball ways from his first few seasons, it’s hard to argue with his success this year.
The Wire Troll: Zack Collins Back in the Bigs Read Post »
Sure to be a one of the more important September callups, Kieboom has enjoyed a huge season at Triple-A. Washington’s top prospect struggled to hit in his first taste of the bigs in late-April/early-May, but the Triple-A seasoning he’s received since should stead him well. In 105 games, Kieboom is batting .305 with 16 homers while racking up the runs and ribbies. Consider him a tremendous dynasty option.

The Mariners have completely dismantled their bullpen since the start of the season and one of the key moves was trading Strickland to the Nats. Since landing in Washington, he’s been lights out, with eight scoreless outings among his nine appearances. In fact, pretty much the only thing to have gone wrong so far is a weight room snafu that ended with Strickland busting his noggin. He had shown good control in his brief time with the Mariners, and has been virtually unhittable since joining the Nats. Seeking holds? Strickland can help.

Nova is as hot as any hurler right now, recording a 4-0 record and an ERA of 0.49 with a pair of complete games over his last five starts. Why didn’t any contender want him at the deadline? Strange stuff. At any rate, Nova’s gotten better and better as the season has progressed, and he’s been rather durable the past few years. Hell, he’s even shutting down top teams like Houston (two wins, three earned runs allowed in 16 IP). Pick up Nova and see if he keeps this rolling down the stretch.

While he didn’t get much of a crack at saves in Toronto, moving to Washington should definitely help him rack up the holds. Hudson’s been quite consistent this season, steady other than a dominant June. He’s done a better job of keeping the ball in the yard, and is enjoying his finest ERA since becoming a reliever. Hudson’s velocity has also bounced back, matching his career best set in 2015.
