Reid Detmers has put together an impressive string of performances, leading to renewed breakout discussions for the young pitcher. Over his last four starts, he has a 1.73 ERA and struck out 36 batters over 26 innings. Despite a season ERA of 4.00, advanced metrics indicate he's performing at a higher level, suggesting this may be the best version of Detmers yet. His sustained success and improved command have led to recommendations to add him in fantasy leagues where he is still available. Bryce Eldridge is also highlighted as a key target for fantasy rosters following a strong start to the season.
