Brad Lord | Fantasy Outlook

Brad Lord shines in long relief, but limited high-leverage opportunities cap his weekly fantasy value.

Lord has been spectacular lately for the third-place Nationals (33-33), pitching to a microscopic 0.63 ERA and 0.70 WHIP over his last 30 days. Operating as Washington's primary long reliever, he has stepped up significantly with starter Jake Irvin recently landing on the injured list. Despite his excellent form, he remains behind closer Gus Varland for late-game save opportunities.

While Lord's recent run is outstanding, his 2.65 ERA this year is a massive improvement over last season's 4.48 mark. Our models expect some regression toward his career ratios, especially since his walk rate has crept up in recent outings. He is a highly valuable real-world asset, but his fantasy upside is limited without a secure path to wins or saves.

The Nationals travel to San Francisco before returning home to host Seattle this week. With no scheduled starts and low weekly projections, Lord will likely only see the field in multi-inning relief or blowout scenarios. Consequently, he is not a recommended option in standard formats. Verdict: Sit.
