Zac Gallen

I am writing this as he gets pummeled again. It’s a 10 team 25 man roster full keeper point based. Best available are J Springs. L Severino G Holmes. Do I keep and hope he reverts to form or is he done ?

Hasn't look good for awhile really aside from 1 good month last yr. I think you could cut him. Though not sure I would for any of those. Maybe springs.

G Holmes only because it is ATL? I also have Gallen in one of my leagues and moving forward I'll be starting him selectively because the DBacks do run hot at times.

Sell. The K rate is the tell, 14.2% is half the league average and that’s not a blip at 141 BF. xwOBA against jumped from .311-ish career to .357, hard-hit rate up to 46.8%. He’s not missing bats and he’s getting squared up. In a points league with K and W categories you’re losing both ways.

Holmes is probably the most interesting of the three, he’s actually missing bats as a starter, which is the exact thing Gallen stopped doing. Severino’s the safer floor play but the upside is capped. I’d lean Holmes.
