Handed seventh loss
PCincinnati Reds
September 24, 2024
Spiers (5-7) took the loss Tuesday at Cleveland, pitching four innings while allowing three runs on five hits and two walks. He struck out two.
ANALYSIS
Spiers made his first start since Aug. 20, subbing in for the injured Julian Aguiar (shoulder). Things began poorly for the 26-year-old righty, as the Guardians tagged him for three runs, including two homers in the opening frame. He managed to generate only six whiffs out of his 69 total pitches. Spiers has been rough as a starter this season, pitching to a 6.62 ERA, 1.49 WHIP and 47:15 K:BB across 51.2 innings. If this marks his final appearance of the season -- Spiers could possibly appear in relief during the weekend -- he wraps the campaign with a 5.46 ERA over 90.2 innings total.

Weekly Pitcher Rankings: Know Thy Rules
120 days ago
Logan Webb has allowed just seven home runs in 172 innings pitched in 2024. He tops Todd Zola's pitcher rankings for the week of August 26 to September 1.
2024 Fantasy Outlook
Spiers fared well in his second go-round at Double-A Chattanooga in 2023 and was needed for MLB innings during the Reds' push for the postseason in September. In the minors, the right-hander's walk rate inched up, but Speirs' improved location within the strike zone resulted in a better strikeout percentage and significantly lowered home run rate. Desperate for pitching help in the majors, the Reds summoned Spiers from Double-A for four appearances (two starts) that went predictably awry. Spiers' name will mentioned when talking about the team's starting depth, but he could spend the entire season in the minors.
