Rest-of-Season Projections
Nabs first win with new team
Bickford (3-4) gave up a hit and struck out three over 1.1 scoreless relief innings Monday to pick up the win in a 10-4 victory over Atlanta.
ANALYSIS
Starter David Peterson failed to last five innings, and Bickford took over from the southpaw with the Mets already ahead 7-4 to get credit for the win. It's his first victory in 10 appearances since joining New York at the beginning of August, but his 8.38 ERA, 1.66 WHIP and 13:6 K:BB through 9.2 innings for his new team will keep him in a low-leverage role.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2022
2017
2016
Bickford is one of the many relievers we now see in baseball that takes two pitches, throws them with high effort and fills a niche in a club's bullpen. In Bickford's case, his job is to come in to face righties while slinging fastballs and sliders their way in short spurts. He worked fewer innings than games played, but picked up a handful of decisions in leverage situations with solid ratios. The repertoire pretty much limits him to a righty specialist insomuch as any reliever can be a specialist with the three-batter minimum rule these days. He has little fantasy relevance unless several dominoes in front of him fall.
