Hayden Wesneski

Through his first few seasons in the majors, Wesneski looks more comfortable as a reliever than a starter. The righty has a 3.56 ERA across 81 career innings in relief, compared to a 4.21 ERA when starting. Wesneski also has a higher career K/9 and lower batting average against as a reliever, with his stuff seemingly playing up in shorter spurts. That said, the Astros may be inclined to give Wesneski one last shot as a starter after acquiring him in the Kyle Tucker trade. The 26-year-old is at least capable of covering multiple innings out of the bullpen, and he could snag some wins if he were to end up in relief, though long relievers are hard to count on for consistent fantasy value. If Wesneski is able to slide into the rotation for Houston, his outlook would improve. Read Past Outlooks
