Secures fifth hold
Clarke allowed no hits and a walk with no strikeouts over a scoreless inning Saturday against the Blue Jays to record his fifth hold of the season.
Analysis
The 32-year-old was trusted with the eighth inning of a one-run game Saturday and came through, issuing only a harmless two-out walk before handing the ball off for Carlos Estevez to close. Clarke hasn't been a fixture in high-leverage spots this year, but he's been excellent in the second half, compiling a 1.98 ERA and 0.77 WHIP over 26 outings and 27.1 innings since the All-Star break.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2021
2020
Clarke posted a 5.95 ERA and 1.61 WHIP over 59 innings out of Kansas City's bullpen in 2023. The 30-year-old right-hander tallied three saves and a career-high 12 holds for the Royals, but he had just as many home runs allowed (12) for a poor 1.9 HR/9 that was 6th-worst among qualified relievers. The 2015 third-rounder's 13.2 barrel percentage was highest among relief pitchers, though he did boast a career-best 24.5 percent strikeout rate after making his slider his primary offering (37 percent pitch usage). Clarke was recently traded to Milwaukee, where he figures to operate in middle relief for the 2024 season.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Possible trade piece?
According to Mark Feinsand of MLB.com, the Royals have received interest on the trade market for Clarke.
Analysis
Clarke has 10 holds this season while often seeing high-leverage work for Kansas City, but his 6.00 ERA, 1.62 WHIP and 49:19 K:BB is underwhelming, at best. The right-hander's 4.56 xERA paints a better picture, and he is coming off a solid campaign as he posted a 4.04 ERA last year. Still, he's hardly a prime trade target and is unlikely to command a notable return.
