| Jordan Lyles holding his own |
by Chris Towers | CBSSports.com
(5/7/13) Astros starting pitcher Jordan Lyles flopped in his first two seasons in the majors, to the point that he did not even earn a spot in the rotation despite making 25 starts a year ago. In two starts since being recalled, however, he has looked more major-league ready this time around, racking up big strikeout numbers in his first two starts.
Lyles has 12 strikeouts and just three walks in his first 10 innings of work after posting just 6.3 strikeouts per nine innings last year and 6.41 in 2011. The key for Lyles will be whether he can sustain this strikeout rate, as his minor-league numbers have not hinted at dominant swing-and-miss potential in the past few years.
When Lyles established himself as a prospect worth watching, he put together consecutive seasons of at least 8.0 strikeouts per nine innings. He has been below 7.0 in each full season since, in both the majors and minors. It is a good sign that he has induced a swinging strike on 14.1 percent of his pitches so far, compared to just 6.9 percent a year ago.
Lyles is worth a look in AL-only Fantasy formats at this time, but he will need to keep generating plenty of whiffs to be someone who should draw interest in mixed-league formats.

| Jordan Lyles continued to struggle in the majors last season but made 25 starts for the Astros and showed some signs of improvement. He posted a 4.30 ERA over his first 13 starts and ended up going 5-12 with a 5.09 ERA. Few 22-year-olds have 40 major-league starts under their belt but with a career 5.20 ERA, he has not garnered much attention in Fantasy. It looks as though Lyles has a spot in the rotation locked up for 2013 so keep an eye on his progress this spring. With the move to the American League West, you should view Lyles as more of an option for deeper AL-only formats on Draft Day. (Updated 1/10/13) |
