The Almanac's Take

One starter in the data today, so this is a short read. Mason Fluharty draws what projects as an elite matchup against Detroit, with a line of 6.2 IP, 6.6 Ks, and 0.9 ER — that's a clean floor for a lefty sitting at a 3.18 season ERA. No workload or velocity flags attached, and the confidence tag is medium rather than high, so treat the projection as directionally right rather than locked in. Thin slate, but if you need a pitcher play, Fluharty's number is the only one on the board.
