Fantasy Analysis
Kirkman has made six starts and five relief appearances for the Express and is 2-1 with a 6.68 ERA over those outings. He will be able to keep on playing while he undergoes treatment and is scheduled to make his next start on Tuesday. While we certainly wish the 25-year-old a speedy and healthy recovery, Kirkman doesn't hold much Fantasy value right now. Continue to ignore him in all formats at this point in the year.
