Rest-of-Season Projections
Outrighted to Triple-A
Schugel (shoulder) was reinstated from the 60-day disabled list Saturday and outrighted to Triple-A Indianapolis.
ANALYSIS
Schugel, who hasn't pitched at the big-league level this season, has a 6.19 ERA in 16 innings split between Indianapolis and High-A Bradenton. Since he's not on the 40-man roster, it's unlikely that the 29-year-old will be called up in September.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2018
2017
Close your eyes and imagine yourself in beautiful PNC Park. It's the top of the seventh inning, there is one out, and a righty batter is coming up with men on first and second. Clint Hurdle comes out to yank the tiring starting pitcher as he needs a groundball double-play to get out of the inning. There is one man for this job, and it's Schugel. The righty reliever is very tough on righties and pitches with a groundball tilt. This is the role he is made for. As good as he is against righties, he does not have a brighter future because lefties see him very well. When used properly, as he was last year, he can be very effective. Just don't expect that 1.97 ERA to hang around because only the most elite relievers can strand 91 percent of runners as Schugel did in 2017.
