Knack provides Los Angeles with some long relief depth behind Clayton Kershaw for Sunday’s regular-season finale in Seattle. The 28-year-old righty has posted an inflated 5.12 ERA across 38 2/3 innings over nine appearances (seven starts) this season at the highest level.

Knack walked three and struck out eight, while giving up two extra base hits, including a solo home run. The 27-year-old has struggled in the big league rotation this year, and with Emmett Sheehan (elbow) close to a return and Ben Casparius now moved into the rotation, it seems like we may not see Knack get another big league start for a while.

Knack gets booted from the active roster after struggling in his start against the Mets on Thursday with 3 1/3 innings of four-run baseball. He likely will be back with the Dodgers at some point, but for now, Justin Wrobleski gets the call with Wrobleski starting Friday’s game against the Cardinals.

Knack also walked five and struck out just one while allowing three home runs. He has a 5.12 ERA on the season and has shown little fantasy value other than pitching for the Dodgers. We’d recommend looking elsewhere in most fantasy formats.

Knack was given nearly three touchdowns worth of run support, so he didn’t have to pitch well, but pitch well he did. The only run he allowed was on a solo homer from Aaron Judge — one of two homers Judge hit on the evening — and he struck out six while allowing five hits and three walks. That’s back-to-back outings where he he’s allowed just one earned run, and Knack has now lowered his ERA to a still-shaky 4.58. He’ll face the Mets for the second time in three starts next week.

The 27-year-old right-hander punched out five batters on the night and didn’t walk a batter. He served up a two-out, two-run homer to Pete Alonso in the opening inning after an error by Max Muncy had extended the inning. The Mets then scratched out a run against him in the third inning. Knack got eight swings and misses on 91 pitches on the evening, posting a solid CSW of 30 percent. He’ll attempt to get back in the win column as he brings a 5.22 ERA, 1.36 WHIP and a 28/10 K/BB ratio (29 1/3 innings) into Saturday’s matchup against the Yankees.

Knack came in after Jack Dreyer worked as an opener, and Dreyer gets the loss as he gave up three runs in his two innings. Knack wasn’t much better, as he gave up six hits — two of them homers — with two walks in another ineffective outing for the 27-year-old hurler. Knack is scheduled to face the Mets over the weekend, but fantasy managers should explore other options for that contest.

Knack came through with a spectacular performance on Wednesday afternoon to spare Los Angeles’ overworked bullpen. The 27-year-old righty struck out five and limited Miami’s lineup to just five baserunners over five frames. He’s likely headed back to Triple-A Oklahoma City, but there’s a chance he gets the ball on Tuesday against the Athletics. He’s talented enough to make an impact for fantasy managers, but he’s a risky streaming option at the moment.

Knack gets to make a spot start against the Marlins on Wednesday. The 27-year-old has struggled in his time with the Dodgers this season, but there are worse streaming options; mainly due to him facing one of the weaker lineups in the sport.

It’s a tasty matchup at pitcher-friendly loanDepot park, but there’s no scenario where fantasy managers should trust Knack as a streaming option when his ERA (7.27) through three appearances (two starts) in the majors this season resembles the model number of a Boeing jetliner. He’ll presumably head back to Triple-A Oklahoma City after Wednesday’s spot start in Miami.

Knack has been jettisoned back to the minors with Bobby Miller coming up on Wednesday night for his season debut against the Rockies. The 27-year-old former top prospect delivered a pair of underwhelming starts during a brief big-league stint and will attempt to iron things out back at Triple-A Oklahoma City. He’s off fantasy manager’s radar screens until we see some legitimate improvement at the highest level.

Bobby Miller is set to start on Wednesday against the Rockies, so the Dodgers will clear space by moving Knack down. Knack looked better in his second start of the season on Tuesday night, but his spot in the rotation won’t come up until next week, and the Dodgers are hopeful that Blake Snell may be ready to return by then. If not, the Dodgers could still call Knack back up, but it’s interesting to note that, once this move is processed, Knack will only have one more minor league option remaining, so the Dodgers are getting close to the point where they can’t keep bringing him up and down.

Knack worked three scoreless innings before surrendering two runs on a double by Jacob Stallings in the fourth. He entered the fifth and retired the first batter before his day was done at 65 pitches. Knack would have to settle for a no-decision despite the lead as he failed to go five innings. The 27-year-old right-hander is tentatively lined up for a start against the Cubs in Chicago next Wednesday.
