Sun Jul 17 202207:27Chris Archer Will Start Sunday Vs. The White Sox
Minnesota Twins pitcher Chris Archer (hip) will return from the injured list to start Sunday against the Chicago White Sox. He was placed on the 15-day injured list with hip tightness retroactive to July 2. The 33-year-old owns a 2-3 record along with a 3.08 ERA, 1.26 WHIP, and a 47:30 K: BB across 61 1/3 innings in 2022. While his ERA and WHIP are solid, the veteran isn't throwing deep into starts and has reached five innings just three times this season. Fantasy managers outside of deep-league formats should avoid using Archer as a streamer for Sunday's main slate.

Tue Jul 5 202218:04Chris Archer Lands On Injured List With Hip Tightness
The Minnesota Twins placed right-hander Chris Archer (hip) on the 15-day injured list with hip tightness on Tuesday. The move is retroactive to July 2. Archer was scheduled to start against the Chicago White Sox on Tuesday, but he was scratched from the start and Josh Winder is lined up to start in his place. Twins manager Rocco Baldelli stated that he hope is that Archer will be back before the All-Star break. Archer has made 15 starts so far this year and he's gone 2-3 with a 3.08 ERA and a 1.26 WHIP. While he's done a good job of minimizing the damage against him, he hasn't been pitching very deep into his starts. He's only pitched into the fifth inning of a game on four occasions so far and has yet to see the sixth inning of a game.

Mon Mar 28 202221:07Chris Archer Signs One-Year Deal With Twins
The Minnesota Twins have signed right-handed pitcher Chris Archer to a one-year deal worth $3.5 million. He is expected to join the team's starting rotation. The 33-year-old has been plagued by injuries over the past few years. He missed the entirety of the 2020 seasons after undergoing surgery for thoracic outlet syndrome. He was then held to just 19 2/3 innings with the Tampa Bay Rays last year and he posted a 4.66 ERA and 1.35 WHIP over that stretch. We'll see if he can rejuvenate his career from the backend of the Twins' rotation this year.

Wed Aug 25 202120:46Chris Archer Expected To Make Next Start As Scheduled
Tampa Bay Rays starting pitcher Chris Archer (hip) felt good after throwing a bullpen session on Wednesday, and expects to make his next scheduled start against the Orioles, according to Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times. Archer had exited his last start on Sunday due to left hip tightness, which was the same issue that had caused him to exit a rehab start earlier this month. It appears the hip issue will not be a problem for Archer, and he should have a nice matchup going up against Baltimore. Managers may want to consider streaming him this weekend.

Sun Aug 22 202115:39Chris Archer Exits Start Sunday With Hip Injury
Tampa Bay Rays starting pitcher Chris Archer (hip) exited his start on Sunday due to left hip tightness, according to Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times. In his first start since landing on the injured list back in April, Archer allowed one hit and one walk over two scoreless innings while striking out four against the White Sox. Topkin adds that the hip tightness was an issue that forced Archer's early exit in a rehab start at Triple-A Durham earlier this month. This is a disappointment for Archer after missing almost the entire season due to a forearm strain, and for now managers should consider him day-to-day and keep an eye out for further updates on his condition after the game.

The 32-year-old right-hander has been sidelined since April with a forearm strain, only pitching 4 1/3 innings this season to a 6.23 ERA. While Archer's presence could give Tampa Bay's rotation some relief down the stretch, he hasn't played enough or pitched well enough to warrant much fantasy value.

Wed Aug 4 202111:22Chris Archer Avoids Serious Injury

Sun Apr 4 202103:17Feisty Reds top Cardinals 9-6 for 1st win of season
CINCINNATI (AP) — Nick Castellanos stood over, flexed and jawed at St. Louis pitcher Jake Woodford after scoring, setting off a series of scuffles that included relievers shoving in the outfield as the Cincinnati Reds beat the Cardinals 9-6 Saturday. St. Louis starter Adam Wainwright was knocked around for six runs and chased in the third. The next inning, the teams started tagging each other. Castellanos, who homered on opening day and hopped out of the box before tossing his bat, was plunked by Woodford with two outs and none on in the fourth. Castellanos retrieved the ball and offered to toss it back to Woodford before flipping it out of play. A wild pitch soon sent Castellanos scampering home from third and he scored with a headfirst slide for a 7-2 lead as he bumped into Woodford, who took the throw from catcher Yadier Molina at the plate. As Castellanos began walking away, Molina rushed up and tapped him from behind, and the benches and bullpens emptied in a wild scene. There was... [More]
