There’s never a day where there isn’t a new everyday player, so let’s continue on discussing them for eternity!

The new everyday players keep popping up. So let’s just keep going so you have additional names to consider in deeper (and perhaps shallower) leagues.

Since yesterday’s post was an all-Marlins edition, there are still a number of teams featuring new everyday players. So let’s continue on discussing them.

Let’s keep it going with another pack of new everyday players. This one happens to be a Marlins edition, as nearly half the lineup features new starters this month.

It was another exciting trade deadline day with a flurry of deals and a monstrous blockbuster. Lots of trades = lots of new faces entering starting lineups. As we head into the final two months of the season, playing time will continue to be king and active owners will benefit from uncovering those new starters. So let’s review a bunch of new everyday players once again. Today’s theme is going to players who had all debuted previously, were either demoted to the minors or injured, and are now back.

August 3, 2022
On Monday, Tommy Pham was traded to the Red Sox as the Reds continue to dismantle and build for the future. The 34-year-old has endured a weak offensive season and his xwOBA sits at the lowest of his career. Let’s see if the park switch provides any hope of a rebound.
Luis Castillo Lands in Seattle – A Park Factor Analysis
August 2, 2022
Last Friday, the Mariners made the first big splash of the trade deadline deals when they acquired Reds starting pitcher Luis Castillo. The 29-year-old is enjoying another strong season, having posted a career best ERA so far and his second lowest SIERA. His SwStk% has declined to a career worst though, but his CStr% has risen to a career best to somewhat offset the drop in pure dominance. His GB% has also declined below 50% for the first time since 2018. It seems pretty clear this isn’t exactly the same type of pitcher as he’s been in the past, but he’s been just as effective. Now with the move to Seattle, how might his new park affect his results? Let’s consult the park factors.
