Rest-of-Season Projections

DFA'd by Pittsburgh
The Pirates designated Rainey for assignment Monday.
ANALYSIS
Rainey will lose his spot on the roster after he was knocked around for four runs while recording just one out in his final appearance with the Pirates on Sunday in San Diego. He seems likely to clear waivers.

Much has been decided in the National League over the last few days, including the Giants' fifth starter job, which was won by Landen Roupp.

Which relievers will be on the dealt over the course of the next week, and what are their most likely landing spots?

Remaining strength of schedule could have a big impact on fantasy values in the second half, with Atlanta's friendly run-in giving the team's bats and arms a boost.

Rainey nearly missed the entire 2023 campaign after undergoing Tommy John surgery in August 2022. However, the right-hander was able to return to the Nationals bullpen in late-September to make one relief appearance before the season ended. Prior to that outing, Rainey struck out 14 over 13 innings on his minor league rehab assignment. The 31-year-old has yet to pitch more than 48.1 innings in a season, but he did record 12 saves in 2022 and figures to be part of Washington's high-leverage mix in 2024.

Latest Fantasy Rumors

Might get non-tendered
Rainey could be non-tendered by the Nationals, Andrew Golden of The Washington Post reports.
ANALYSIS
Rainey once looked like the Nationals' long-term closer, but he hasn't been the same since coming back from Tommy John surgery, showing diminished velocity while posting a 4.76 ERA and 44:29 K:BB over 51 innings in 2024. The righty did hold a 2.88 ERA in the second half, so perhaps the Nationals will be willing to pay him in his final year of arbitration eligibility in hopes that he bounces back.
