Patrick

Corbin

Miles was very impressive here despite only going three innings on 46 pitches. Both his fastball and sinker sat between 97 and 98 mph and the latter flashed some impressive movement. His curveball flashed too and he was willing to throw it against hitters from both sides of the plate. There was enough here to make us think about adding him in very deep leagues. Otherwise, Patrick Corbin followed him as more of a bulk reliever going five innings, allowing three runs, and earning the save. With a 5.11 ERA, he should not be on our radar.

Schneider told reporters it’ll likely be rookie Spencer Miles getting the ball for a bullpen game in place of Corbin, who was originally scheduled to start Wednesday’s series finale against the Mets. The 36-year-old veteran has pitched to a cromulent 5.09 ERA, 1.55 WHIP and 52/24 K/BB ratio across 69 innings over 15 starts this season. His rotation spot will likely go to Max Scherzer (back) once he’s ready to come off the injured list in a few weeks.

Corbin didn’t have it from the get-go. The Rangers jumped on him for three runs in the first inning and he had to dance out of trouble or else it would’ve been worse. It took him 34 pitches just to get through that frame and then Justin Foscue took him deep for a two-run shot in the third. He held on until the fifth, but was pulled before facing some of the Rangers’ righties for a third time. On the season, he has a 5.09 ERA and is scheduled to face the Mets at home next time out.

Corbin tossed a scoreless first inning, then allowed the first two batters to reach in the second for Matt Shaw, who took Corbin deep for a three-run blast to put the Cubs on the board. He labored through the next two innings and left the bases loaded with two outs in the fourth at 101 pitches, only 57 for strikes. He scattered six hits and three walks in all while striking out four. The 36-year-old left-hander will take a 4.73 ERA, 1.53 WHIP, and a 47/23 K/BB ratio across 64 2/3 innings into a start against the Rangers in Toronto on Thursday.

Corbin struck out three and didn’t walk anyone. The Blue Jays have dealt with several pitching injuries this season, forcing them to rely on the veteran southpaw for innings. Max Scherzer recently returned from the IL, and Shane Bieber could be back shortly too, so it remains to be seen what happens with the rotation. Corbin’s next scheduled outing comes against the Cubs at Wrigley Field.

Corbin gave up four hits, including a two-run homer to Adolis García as he allowed four runs for the second consecutive start. The interesting wrinkle here is that Simeon Woods-Richardson tossed four scoreless innings out of the bullpen in his Toronto debut, which could set up a potential piggyback situation moving forward. Corbin is not a recommended fantasy option when he faces the Yankees on Sunday.

Corbin was done in by a three-run home run from Mauricio Dubón in the third inning. His outing was fairly clean otherwise, but he still isn’t missing enough bats and allowing too much hard contact to genuinely be trusted. He currently has a 3.98 ERA with 37 strikeouts and 16 walks across 54 1/3 innings on the season as a remarkably important plug-and-play starter in the Blue Jays’ rotation. Next up is a horrifying two-start week against the Phillies and Yankees with both starts coming at home.

Corbin struck out four batters on the night while issuing one free pass. He served up a solo homer to Coby Mayo in the fourth inning but was able to keep the Orioles’ offense at bay otherwise. Unfortunately, his offense couldn’t generate more than one run of support for him while he was in the game. Corbin got six whiffs on 80 pitches in the game, posting a CSW of 24 percent. Now 3-1 on the season, he’ll bring a respectable 3.65 ERA and 1.36 WHIP into Wednesday’s matchup against the Braves in Atlanta.

Just as everyone expected, Corbin had five more strikeouts and eight more whiffs (15-7) than Paul Skenes today. Corbin did give up 10 hard-hit balls, including the three hardest of the game, but all those hard-hit balls produced was four singles and a double. He also walked none. Corbin is 2-1 with a 3.89 ERA in his nine starts. His strikeout rate is just 17 percent overall and he’s also sporting a career-low groundball rate for the second straight season, so he’s still not worth much attention in fantasy circles. He’ll pitch in Baltimore next week.

Corbin gave up six hits, walked three and struck out three. The 36-year-old left-hander lost two battles to Paul Goldschmidt that decided his outing. Goldschmidt hit a leadoff home run to start the scoring for the Yankees, then capped a rally in the fourth inning with a game-tying double. Corbin is regularly failing to complete five innings and has a 4.23 ERA, which makes him unusable outside of AL-only leagues. He’ll face the Pirates at home this weekend.
