Chandler Promoted As Bulk Reliever
- Bubba Chandler will be used in bulk relief after his promotion to the Pirates' MLB roster.
- His mixed Triple-A track record makes his fantasy upside uncertain unless he earns a rotation spot.
Late Triple-A Slide Raises Doubts
- Chandler dominated early in Triple-A but collapsed over his final 13 starts, raising concerns.
- Scott White suggests his late-season struggles and mental pressure make him a shaky fantasy hold.
Don't Cling To Chandler Blindly
- Hold Chandler only if you can wait to see relief outings and potential rotation promotion.
- Otherwise consider cutting him for emerging prospects like Hurston Waldrep or Cam Schlictter.
