Player Outlook
While it was still his most-used pitch, Brady Singer dropped his sinker usage quite a bit in 2024 down to 41.3 percent. It was the first time he's ever used it less than 50 percent of the time in a season, and it proved more effective with a career-high plus-13 Run Value. It was a nice bounce-back season on the whole for Singer, although an xERA of 4.65 was nearly a run worse than his actual ERA. He also had major platoon splits, holding righties to a .563 OPS but getting pummeled by lefties to the tune of an .855 OPS. Now 28, it's fair to wonder whether Singer will ever develop a viable third pitch. Without one, he's probably reached his ceiling, which is that of a perfectly solid but low-upside fantasy starter. Singer's margin for error shrunk after he landed in Great American Ball Park in an offseason trade, although being a ground ball pitcher could help mitigate that potential disaster.

  • Reds' Brady Singer: Unravels in second inning

    Rotowire
    Singer allowed two runs on four hits and two walks while striking out two over 1.2 innings in Saturday's spring start against the Padres. Singer had a largely uneventful first inning, working around a one-out double, but faced adversity during his second frame. The right-hander left some balls up in the zone early and eventually began falling behind and walking batters before being removed with his pitch count at 42 (26 strikes). Despite the rough outing, Singer is on schedule and is expected to shoot for three innings/60 pitches his next time out.

The right-hander threw 33 pitches (23 strikes) and worked out of a second-inning jam, inducing a double play with one out and two on.

  • Reds' Brady Singer: Dealt to Cincy

    Rotowire
    The Royals traded Singer to the Reds on Friday in exchange for Jonathan India (ankle) and Joey Wiemer. After posting a 5.52 ERA and 1.45 WHIP in 2023, Singer bounced back nicely with a 3.71 ERA and 1.27 WHIP to go along with a 170:54 K:BB in 2024. Now in Cincinnati, the 28-year-old shouldn't have much trouble securing a spot in the Reds' starting rotation, which is currently headlined by Hunter Greene.

    Rotowire
    Singer (9-11) took the loss Sunday against Pittsburgh, allowing four runs on six hits and four walks across five innings. He struck out six. Singer's four walks marked a season high, and he failed to complete six innings for a third consecutive outing.

  • Royals' Brady Singer: Saddled with 10th loss

    Rotowire
    Singer (9-10) took the loss Tuesday, allowing two runs on five hits and two walks over 5.2 innings against Cleveland. He struck out three. The Kansas City right-hander fell one out short of his 13th quality start in this 99-pitch outing. Singer held the Guardians lineup in check, allowing just one extra-base hit -- a Kyle Manzardo double in fourth -- as he lowered his post-All-Star-break ERA to 3.64 across 54.1 innings with a 1.25 WHIP and 51:11 K:BB. Overall, the 28-year-old now sports a 3.35 ERA, 1.24 WHIP and 150:43 K:BB in 158.1 total innings this season. He is scheduled to make his next start against the Yankees on the road next week.

  • Royals' Brady Singer: Tosses six scoreless frames

    Rotowire
    Singer (9-8) earned the win Sunday, allowing five hits and one walk over six scoreless innings against the Reds. He struck out six. Singer, who also hit a batter in allowing seven total batters to reach base, tossed only one flawless inning but also allowed only one baserunner to make it past first base. He left the game with a four-run lead, which was more than enough to grab his ninth win. This start comes on the heels of a three-game stretch in which he allowed 13 earned runs over 17.2 innings (6.62 ERA). However, those contests came immediately following two consecutive games of seven innings and zero earned runs. It was Singer's 11th quality start this season, and he's pitched particularly well over his last 11 appearances, even including the aforementioned three-game blip, holding a 2.92 ERA over 64.2 innings during that stretch. His next start is tentatively slated to take place at home against the visiting Phillies.

  • Royals' Brady Singer: Stung by singles in defeat

    Rotowire
    Singer (8-7) took the loss against Boston on Monday, allowing four runs on 10 hits and one walk while striking out six batters over 5.2 innings. Singer wasn't exactly hit hard in the outing -- nine of the 10 knocks against him were singles -- but he didn't retire the side in order in any of the frames in which he pitched. The right-hander still managed to depart with two outs in the sixth inning having given up just two runs, but reliever Angel Zerpa subsequently allowed both of the runners he inherited from Singer to score. As a result, Singer took his first loss of the second half. Coming into Monday, he had tallied three straight wins while tossing a seven-inning quality start in each of those victories.

  • Royals' Brady Singer: Holds Cubs scoreless

    Rotowire
    Singer (7-6) allowed two hits and two walks over seven scoreless frames Friday, striking out five and earning a win over the Cubs. Singer retired the first 11 batters he faced and was later able to work his way around a few threats. In two starts since the All-Star break, he's fired 14 scoreless innings while recording 12 punchouts. He's allowed fewer than two runs in six of his last seven outings while registering a 1.76 ERA over that span. Singer now owns a strong 2.82 ERA with a 111:36 K:BB through 118 innings. His next start is projected to come on the road against the White Sox.

    Singer (6-6) earned the win over the White Sox on Saturday, allowing five hits and issuing two walks while striking out seven batters over seven scoreless innings. All five of Chicago's hits against Singer were singles, and he needed an efficient 93 pitches to get through seven frames. The right-hander has completed at least seven innings in three of his past five outings, and he has given up more than one run just once over his past six starts. Over that span, Singer has recorded a 2.12 ERA, 1.21 WHIP and 30:11 K:BB across 34.0 innings.

  • Royals' Brady Singer: Pulled in the third

    Rotowire
    Singer was saddled with the loss Sunday, allowing four runs on eight hits and a walk over 2.2 innings against the Red Sox. He struck out three. Singer couldn't put things together Sunday, allowing separate two-run homers in each of the first and second innings, then loading the bases in the third prior to being pulled. It was the shortest outing of the season for Singer, who entered the contest having allowed only one earned run during each of his previous four starts. He enters the All-Star break ranked 10th in the majors with a 3.20 ERA to go along with a 1.23 WHIP and 99 strikeouts over 19 starts spanning 104 innings.

Through 101.1 innings, Singer owns a 2.93 ERA and a 1.17 WHIP. He's in line for one more start before the All-Star break, which is scheduled to come during a weekend series in Boston.

  • Royals' Brady Singer: Plagued by long ball

    Rotowire
    Singer (4-4) took the loss Sunday against the Dodgers, allowing three runs on five hits and two walks across six innings. He struck out four.

Through 14 outings, Singer owns a 3.39 ERA and a 76:23 K:BB across 77 innings. He's tentatively scheduled to face the Rangers in Arlington next weekend.

  • Royals' Brady Singer: Rocked by Yankees

    Rotowire
    Singer (4-3) took the loss Tuesday against the Yankees, allowing seven runs (six earned) on seven hits and a walk across 5.2 innings. He struck out six. Singer was in trouble from the start, allowing a triple to Anthony Volpe on just his second pitch of the day as part of a two-run first inning for the Yankees. Singer had more issues in the fourth, when Austin Wells launched a three-run home run to plate Giancarlo Stanton and Gleyber Torres to give New York a 6-0 lead. The 27-year-old's seven runs allowed marked a season high and he failed to complete six innings for the fifth time in his last six starts. He'll have another tough draw for his next start, with a road matchup with Dodgers set for Sunday.

  • Royals' Brady Singer: Cleared to start Wednesday

    Rotowire
    Singer (illness) is listed as the Royals' probable starting pitcher for Wednesday's game against the Guardians in Cleveland, Anne Rogers of MLB.com reports. Singer looks to be in the clear on the health front after an unspecified illness left him feeling lethargic and unable to play catch Wednesday before the Royals opted to scratch him from his scheduled start Thursday against the Twins, according to ESPN.com. He apparently demonstrated enough progress over the weekend and shouldn't face any major workload restrictions when he takes the hill Wednesday. Through 11 starts this season, Singer has gone 4-2 with a 2.63 ERA, 1.12 WHIP and 64:19 across 61.2 innings.

  • Royals' Brady Singer: Gets back in win column

    Rotowire
    Singer (3-1) earned the win Wednesday against Milwaukee, allowing one run on five hits and two walks over 5.1 innings. He struck out four. Singer tallied his first win in five starts, yielding one run for a third consecutive outing. He settled in nicely after allowing doubles to the first two batters he faced, keeping the Brewers off the scoreboard following the first frame. Singer has allowed more than two runs in just one start this season and owns a 2.36 ERA with 46 strikeouts across 45.2 innings. He's lined up for a start in Seattle on Monday.

  • Royals' Brady Singer: Punches out eight

    Rotowire
    Singer took a no-decision Friday against the Rangers after allowing one earned run on four hits while striking out eight batters through six innings. He did not issue a walk. Although Singer turned in yet another strong outing Friday, his contributions went unrewarded as the Royals were unable to take the lead until after the 27-year-old was removed from the game, giving the win to John Schreiber instead. Singer didn't get the win, but his 2.45 ERA and 42 strikeouts through 40.1 innings on the season still give fantasy managers plenty of reason to be pleased with his performance to begin the year.

  • Royals' Brady Singer: Tuesday's game postponed

    Rotowire
    Singer and the Royals won't play the White Sox on Tuesday since the game was postponed due to rain.

  • Royals' Brady Singer: Improves to 2-0

    Rotowire
    Singer (2-0) earned the win over the Astros on Thursday, allowing one run on five hits over five innings. He struck out four. A Yainer Diaz home run in the fourth inning was the lone mark against Singer on Thursday. The 27-year-old right-hander has allowed just two runs through his first three starts (18.1 innings) this season, lowering his ERA to a pristine 0.98 with a 0.76 WHIP and 18:4 K:BB. Singer looks to be back on track after a tough 2023 campaign, during which he went 8-11 with a 5.52 ERA. He's tentatively lined up for a road matchup with the White Sox in his next outing.
