2 years agoSan Francisco Giants left-handed reliever Jake McGee was designated for assignment on Saturday. What a fall from grace for the Giant's former closer. After saving 31 games for the team last season, he has recorded just three in 2022 and has seen his role increasingly diminish throughout the season. His 7.17 ERA and 1.55 WHIP are reason enough for this move, but his underlying stats are somehow even worse, with McGee sporting an 8.27 xERA and 11.5% strikeout rate. As a lefty with a decent pedigree, he is sure to be picked up by someone, but he has next to no fantasy value anymore.--Matt Garon - RotoBaller
