Jordan Lyles has been a consistent winner for the Baltimore Orioles.

The Wire Troll: Jordan Lyles Racking Up Wins in B-More

Bradish was simply molested earlier this season, but since returning to the Orioles in late-July, he’s been very good, lowering his ERA in six straight appearances, including eight shutout innings against the powerful Astros on Friday. With a 3.21 ERA and just 30 hits allowed in 33 2/3 IP over this stretch, he deserves some Fantasy love.

Elvis Andrus could prove useful for the Chicago White Sox.

The Wire Troll: Elvis Andrus Has Left the Bay

A two-time All-Star, Andrus actually went yard the day before getting his walking papers, but he had cooled significantly in August after a solid performance last month. He’s been more productive this season, but is still nowhere near his peak in 2017. Andrus definitely gives the Pale Hose more depth at shortstop, and for the time being, could be a useful AL-only asset. Let’s not forget that he is a superb athlete with speed and a bit of pop. However, how much is left in the tank remains an open question.

Vaughn Grissom brought enthusiasm to the Atlanta Braves.

The Wire Troll: Vaughn Grissom Breaks the Internet

Now in B-More, Voth is back in the rotation and has managed to strike out better than a batter per frame over the last three starts, continuing a roll that has seen him improve his ERA in 13 straight appearances (including nine starts). Just think about that for a moment. Voth put up a 2.75 ERA in four starts and one relief outing in July, and has been decent in his two August appearances. This dude has never looked better since joining the Orioles, and for the year, he’s in the 95th percentile for limiting hard contact. Maybe Voth deserves some AL-only love?

Felix Bautista is now closing for the Baltimore Orioles.

The Wire Troll: Trade Deadline Edition

He’s given up just one earned run over his last three starts combined as he continues to get better as the season has progressed (although his command was a bit spotty in July). Not surprisingly, Steele’s K/9 is down as a full-time starter, but considering how strong he’s looked over the last six starts, he’s emerged as an intriguing streaming or deeper mixed league option.

Joey Wendle should get plenty of PT for the Miami Marlins.

The Wire Troll: Braxton Garrett Is Flying Off the Wire

He racked up a ton of steals at Double-A, earning a recent promotion to Triple-A, where he’s continuing to put up total bases. When you consider that Carroll missed all of 2020 because there was no season, and most of last year with an injury, what he’s done this season is beyond amazing. This dude headlines one of the game’s best farm systems, and given his current trajectory, we wouldn’t be surprised to see him make his MLB debut later this season.
