The fantasy baseball landscape continues to evolve as several players make headlines with their outstanding performances. Will Warren has been impressive for the New York Yankees, boasting a stellar 1.50 ERA over his last three starts, showing remarkable control with a WHIP under 1 and a high strikeout rate. On the other hand, Logan Henderson from the Milwaukee Brewers, performing excellently after his call-up, has also demonstrated good control and strikeout potential, making him a must-add for fantasy managers. His upcoming matchup against the struggling Pittsburgh Pirates looks favorable.

Meanwhile, Hayden Birdsong of the San Francisco Giants is back in the rotation and had a promising outing against the Kansas City Royals, with good strikeout numbers and a low WHIP. Jack Leiter of the Texas Rangers is also on the rise, showing signs of breaking out after a couple of rocky starts. Ryan Weathers, now with the Miami Marlins, is another intriguing option, having shown promise in a couple of starts. Each of these players could provide valuable contributions down the stretch of the season.

Kevin Gausman and Jake Burger emerged as key talking points in the latest episode of Fantasy Baseball Today. Gausman delivered a stellar seven-inning shutout against the Padres, showcasing a revitalized splitter that generated impressive whiffs, indicating he could be regaining his ace form. Meanwhile, Jake Burger has been on a tear since returning from Triple-A, smashing two home runs and bringing his batting average to around .340, making him a hot commodity in fantasy leagues.

Despite Gausman's inconsistency, his recent performance suggests he may still hold top-30 starting pitcher potential, particularly if he can maintain the sharpness of his splitter. Burger's power numbers have always been intriguing, but his plate discipline issues could limit his upside in points leagues. The conversation also touched on waiver wire strategies, highlighting other notable performances, including catchers like Adley Rutschman and Cal Raleigh, and their potential for a rebound in production.

Jacob deGrom, once a dominant force with the New York Mets, has had to adapt his pitching style post-Tommy John surgery. With a noticeable decrease in velocity, deGrom is now focused on pitching smarter, evidenced by a recent shutout performance that showcased his efficiency. His decision to leave New York for a fresh start with the Texas Rangers is viewed positively, paralleling Chris Sale's journey. DeGrom's legacy with the Mets is a mix of brilliance and frustration due to injuries, but his peak performance remains unmatched in the franchise's history.

Hunter Brown outperformed Jacob deGrom in a thrilling pitcher's duel, posting a 1.43 ERA and 0.83 WHIP this season, with nine strikeouts in his latest outing. His rapid ascent in fantasy rankings places him among the top-tier starting pitchers, even as deGrom showcases flashes of brilliance with a 1.49 ERA over his last six starts. The debate on whether to trade deGrom continues, given his risk factors, yet many managers remain hopeful for a second-half resurgence. Meanwhile, Josh Lowe returned from injury displaying his potential as a valuable asset, and Brandon Lau's multi-hit games suggest a solid buy-low opportunity. With plenty of upcoming matchups, fantasy managers should assess pitching prospects like Zebie Matthews and streaming options for the week ahead.
