Orion Kerkering

If you want a short-inning reliever who can finish high-leverage innings, Kerkering's combination of mid-to-upper-90s heat and a heavy ground-ball profile is the reason to plug him in. Per Statcast and MLB notes, he sits up near the 92nd percentile in ground-ball rate while routinely touching the high 90s on his fastball. That profile has translated to real production this year, with a 3.43 ERA and 46 strikeouts through late July, and the Phillies have used him in hold situations and occasional late-inning work. You should also factor in the projections: Sorare Edge pegs him at 24.7 points while Sorare itself gives 30.9, model confidence MEDIUM, and he has made six appearances in the last 15 game weeks, which signals regular but not overload usage. Think of Kerkering as a moderate-floor, above-average-ceiling relief play. His floor is a dependable one-inning piece who racks up ground balls and whiffs; his ceiling is steady high-leverage holds or the odd save opportunity if the late-inning mix shifts, so roster him where you can afford some volatility for strikeout and leverage upside.
