Some players on this list impact fantasy baseball more than others, but with leagues of all shapes and sizes, you never know ...

Cincinnati Reds starting pitcher Graham Ashcraft (calf) will return and start Saturday's meeting versus the Braves. The 25-year-old right-hander has been out a few weeks after taking a comebacker during a game against the Los Angeles Dodgers. While fantasy managers will be glad to have an arm back in the lineup, Ashcraft has gone 3-5 with a 6.78 ERA in 2023, so he may only prove useful when the matchup is favorable.

Cincinnati Reds starter Graham Ashcraft (calf) was placed on the 15-day injured list on June 9 after taking a comebacker off of his leg in his last start on June 8. According to manager David Bell, though, the soreness is almost completely healed. However, before Ashcraft begins throwing again, he will need to test his leg with some running drills. The second-year arm should still be back with the Reds before the calendar flips to July. Over 65 innings this season, Ashcraft is sporting an ugly ...

The Cincinnati Reds placed right-hander Graham Ashcraft (calf) on the 15-day injured list on Friday with a left-calf contusion and recalled right-hander Ricky Karcher from Triple-A Louisville in a corresponding move. Ashcraft said he'd be fine after taking a comebacker off his leg in his outing on Thursday against the Los Angeles Dodgers, but that's not the case after all. The 25-year-old's season statistics aren't fine, either, as he's sporting an elevated 6.78 ERA (5.11 FIP), 1.61 WHIP, 30 ...

Cincinnati Reds starting pitcher Graham Ashcraft (calf, knee) said his knee locked up after he was hit in the calf by a comebacker during his start on Thursday against the Los Angeles Dodgers, but he expects to be fine in two to three days. Ashcraft said something similar happened earlier in the year and he was fine. The 25-year-old right-hander took his fifth loss of the season on Thursday against the Dodgers after giving up three runs on three hits while walking two and only striking out one ...

Cincinnati Reds starting pitcher Graham Ashcraft gave up seven earned runs in five innings against the St. Louis Cardinals on Tuesday. Ashcraft's season began with six straight starts allowing two earned runs or fewer. His season turned on a dime against the Chicago White Sox on May 7, when he gave up eight earned runs in only 1 2/3 innings of work. In his last four starts, Ashcraft has given up seven or more earned runs three times. Ashcraft possesses a 96-mph cutter with great spin, but he ...

Cincinnati Reds right-hander Graham Ashcraft (calf) is listed as the team's starter for Friday's Cactus League contest against the Cleveland Guardians. Ashcraft had to be removed early from his last spring start due to cramps in his calf, but he looks to be good to go to get back on the bump later this week in a night game in Arizona. The hard-throwing 25-year-old may be better served as a reliever, but the rebuilding Reds will use him in their rotation after he went 5-6 with a 4.89 ERA (4.21 ...

Cincinnati Reds starting pitcher Graham Ashcraft (calf) was forced to exit early during Sunday's Cactus League matchup against the Los Angeles Dodgers. The right-hander looked sharp during his first two innings. He racked up six strikeouts before he was forced to exit early in the third inning due to a left calf issue. The right-hander said afterwards that the injury wasn't concerning. However, the organization might have Ashcraft undergo further testing, so they can be safe. The expectation is...

Cincinnati Reds right-hander Graham Ashcraft (ankle) had to leave his last live batting practice session early after he was hit by a comebacker on his right ankle. However, he threw another live batting practice session on Friday and looked like himself. The 25-year-old appears to be just fine. In his first taste of MLB action in 2022, Ashcraft went 5-6 with a 4.89 ERA (4.21 FIP), 1.42 WHIP and 15.3 percent strikeout rate in 19 starts covering 105 innings pitched for the Reds. He has plenty of ...

Cincinnati Reds rookie right-hander Graham Ashcraft (biceps) had a minor league rehab start to forget with Triple-A Louisville on Monday night. He allowed eight runs (six earned) on 11 hits while walking none and striking out five in 2 2/3 innings of work. The good news is he didn't allow a home run and struck out five, but the Reds will probably want to see him make another rehab start in the minors before reinstating him from the injured list. The 24-year-old last pitched for the Reds on Aug....
