Matt Boyd (SP, DET) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Mixed Leagues, AL-Only Leagues

OWNED IN: 37% Fleaflicker

ANALYSIS: Matt Boyd still hasn’t lost since being recalled on July 9, and is now 5-0 since with a 2.38 ERA and 1.04 WHIP. He’s also rocking a 43:13 K/BB ratio in those 45 1/3 innings alongside a neat 20.2% soft-contact rate. However, he’s currently riding a .224 BABIP and 92.8% strand rate to success, leading to a 3.97 SIERA and 4.46 xFIP behind that 2.38 ERA. As a result, this pace is unlikely to last. Regardless, Boyd has a nice matchup at home against the White Sox on Aug. 29 next before a road date with the Royals on Sept. 4.
