Eligibility
Ryne Nelson struggled in Saturday's matchup, allowing three earned runs on ten hits while striking out three over 4 2/3 innings in a 5-4 loss to the Orioles.
Fantasy Impact
The right-hander didn't issue any walks, which is a small silver lining in an otherwise disappointing outing. Nelson's performance this season has been less than stellar, marked by a bloated 5.33 ERA and 1.70 WHIP over six starts. His inability to limit hits, as evidenced by a high .379 BABIP, continues to hamper his effectiveness. While his decent strikeout-to-walk ratio suggests some underlying skills, his low strikeout rate (6.8 K/9) limits his appeal in fantasy formats that heavily reward strikeouts. Moving forward, fantasy managers should be cautious with Nelson, considering him more of a matchup-dependent option rather than a regular starter.
Ryne Nelson allowed four runs on eight hits over five innings on Sunday against the Padres.
Fantasy Impact
Nelson threw 99 pitches in his return from the injured list. He didn't have his best stuff, but he was provided with more than enough run support to earn him the win.
The Diamondbacks have activated Ryne Nelson from the 15-day IL.
Fantasy Impact
Nelson has missed the last few weeks due to an elbow injury. He is rejoining the Diamondbacks rotation and making the start Sunday against the Padres.
Ryne Nelson (elbow) will throw a bullpen session Wednesday, per manager Torey Lovullo.
Fantasy Impact
Nelson landed on the 15-day IL after being hit on the elbow by a comebacker. It is a great sign that he is already ready to throw a bullpen and he has a chance to only miss the minimum 15 days.

Fantasy Impact
