Toronto Blue Jays relief pitcher Tyler Clippard will make the start on Thursday against the Mariners. Clippard has appeared in 53 games for Toronto this year, but all have been in relief, and he hasn't gone more than 1 2/3 innings in any single outing. That means he won't be long for this start and shouldn't be touched in any fantasy format.

Tyler Clippard Picks Up Sixth Save
Jul. 3, 2018
Toronto Blue Jays reliever Tyler Clippard didn't start the ninth inning on Tuesday against the New York Mets, but he was the one that finished it. With an 8-6 lead, John Axford got the initial call in the final frame for Toronto, but after allowing a two-out single to outfielder Jose Bautista followed by a walk to second baseman Asdrubal Cabrera, he got the hook. In came Clippard, who induced a game-ending ground out from outfielder Michael Conforto on three pitches. We wouldn't read too much into who started the ninth inning in this one, as the closer role figures to be somewhat of a committee approach with Clippard slightly in the lead for now. Once Ryan Tepera comes back from injury, he could take over the position again immediately.

Tyler Clippard Disastrous In Blown Save
May. 24, 2018
This is why you can't trust Toronto Blue Jays reliever Tyler Clippard. While he has (or should I say, had) sparkling statistics on the season, Clippard is always prone to blowup outings that will simply ruin a fantasy owner's day. After clean efforts in his first two save opportunities with normal closer Roberto Osuna on administrative leave, the third time was the charm for Clippard as he blew the save by allowing four earned runs on two hits and three walks without striking anyone out. Clippard is simply not a great pitcher, and while he'll get save opportunities if he remains Toronto's ninth inning man of choice, he is likely going to hurt your averages more often than you'd like.
Tyler Clippard Picks Up Second Save
May. 23, 2018
It is becoming clearer and clearer that the Toronto Blue Jays are more than set on reliever Tyler Clippard as their new closer in the wake of Roberto Osuna's indefinite absence. Clippard saw the ninth inning once again on Tuesday in a 5-3 win over the Los Angeles Angels, picking up his second save by pitching a perfect inning with one strikeout. The man that most people were clamoring to get the job, Ryan Tepera, got the hold by pitching the eighth inning and allowing an earned run. For Clippard, it was a nice bounceback effort after allowing an eighth-inning grand slam (with inherited runners on base) that blew the game for Toronto on Saturday. He owns a sparkling 1.82 ERA and 1.05 WHIP across 24 2/3 innings pitched this season, but we wouldn't get our hopes up too high. Clippard still issues a lot of walks (4.38 BB/9) and serves up quite a few home runs (1.46 HR/9), while currently carrying a BABIP that's bound to rise (.185) with an unsustainably high 98% left-on-base rate. He's a fair option if you need saves, but there is bound to be some statistical regression here.

Tyler Clippard Blows Save Against Athletics
May. 20, 2018
Toronto Blue Jays reliever Tyler Clippard seems to be the team's candidate of choice for the closer role with Roberto Osuna out indefinitely, but that may be up in the air after Saturday. Granted, Clippard's blown save came after attempting to clean up a mess that reliever John Axford got the Blue Jays into, but he was just as bad in handing the victory to Oakland. He allowed two earned runs on two hits and a walk, striking out one. Clippard was done in by a grand slam off the bat of Oakland Athletics second baseman Chad Pinder. It may only be one bad outing for Clippard, but he has to be looking over his shoulder with the more likely candidate to close, Ryan Tepera, waiting in the wings.

Tyler Clippard Gets First Crack At Saves In Toronto
May. 10, 2018
With normal closer Roberto Osuna placed on administrative leave for an undetermined amount of time, the fantasy community has been wondering who would now be the ninth inning pitcher of choice for the Toronto Blue Jays. While many speculated Ryan Tepera would be the man of the hour, he did not get the first crack. That honor went to Tyler Clippard in a 5-2 victory over the Seattle Mariners on Wedneday, allowing one hit and striking out a pair for his first save of the season. Clippard hasn't been very good in recent years, but has hung around the Major Leagues and was nonetheless an effective closer in 2015 for the Oakland Athletics prior to being traded to the New York Mets. Toronto manager John Gibbons said the Jays wouldn't be using a set closer, but you can be sure if Clippard pitches effectively, he'll see the majority of chances. As of Thursday, Clippard should be treated as a must-own, while Tepera can be a speculative pick-up if you have the roster space.

Tyler Clippard Signs With Blue Jays
Mar. 7, 2018
Free-agent relief pitcher Tyler Clippard signed a minor league deal with the Toronto Blue Jays, according to Robert Murray of FanRag Sports. Clippard had a 4.77 ERA between the Yankees, White Sox and Astros in 2017, earning five saves in the process. While his 2017 season was a bit rough, Clippard had a 2.18 ERA as recently as 2014 and has a career 3.11 ERA and 1.12 WHIP in 11 big league seasons, striking out 9.9 per nine innings. He will slot in as a setup man behind closer Roberto Osuna if he makes the team.

Tyler Clippard Pitches Scoreless Inning In Debut
Aug. 15, 2017
Tyler Clippard allowed a hit and a walk but pitched a scoreless inning in his Astros debut on Monday night. Clippard was acquired from the White Sox to bolster the Houston bullpen after beginning the year with the Yankees. Clippard put together a strong stint with the White Sox and has not allowed a run over his last 9 2/3 innings (nine appearances). He has struck out 12 batters during that span and it is likely that he would take over the closer duties if something were to happen to closer Ken Giles. Clippard doesn't possess a ton of fantasy right now but that could change at any moment heading into the stretch run of the season.

Astros Trade For Tyler Clippard To Beef Up Bullpen
Aug. 14, 2017
The Houston Astros acquired relief pitcher Tyler Clippard from the Chicago White Sox on Sunday night in exchange for a player to be named later. The good news for Clippard, who has a flimsy 4.27 ERA and 1.29 WHIP with 54 strikeouts and three saves in 46 1/3 innings, is that he's going from a basement-dweller to a team comfortably in first place in the American League West. The bad news is that his fantasy value as a closer for Chicago is gone -- he should serve as a setup man to Ken Giles in Houston now. The tall and lanky right-hander may even see work in middle relief with the likes of Luke Gregerson and Chris Devenski ahead of him.

Tyler Clippard Takes Loss in White Sox Debut
Jul. 22, 2017
Chicago White Sox reliever Tyler Clippard had his debut with the team on Friday night in Kansas City. Clippard entered the bottom of the tenth inning with a tie game and it didn't take long for the Royals to walk it off. Clippard gave up two singles, a walk, and threw a wild pitch before a sacrifice fly won it for Kansas City. Clippard's ERA on the year now sits at 5.15 and even if he is the one to get save chances for the White Sox, you might want to think twice about having him on your fantasy roster.

Tyler Clippard To Close For White Sox
Jul. 19, 2017
Rick Renteria announced that recently-acquired reliever Tyler Clippard will be the closer at first for the Chicago White Sox. Clippard was traded from the Yankees last night along with prospects Blake Rutherford, Ian Clarkin and Tito Polo. Clippard has closed for several teams and notched a career-high 32 saves for the Nationals in 2012. He's been extremely shaky this year, giving up 20 runs in 36 innings and walking 19 while striking out 42. Renteria said that he'll also come into games during high-leverage situations so Anthony Swarzak owners should hold him as well. Both Clippard and Swarzak could still be traded before the deadline.

Tyler Clippard Loses Second Game Of Month As Yankees Drop Another
Jun. 20, 2017
Even with Aroldis Chapman back for the Yankees and his role somewhat diminished in terms of importance, Tyler Clippard managed to blow it for New York in a big situation. After the offense had just come back to tie tonight's game against the Angels at three, Clippard entered in the seventh. The very first batter he faced smashed a home run to left, putting the Yankees in a hole once again. Before Clippard's outing was over, he'd allowed two more runs on two additional hits, getting pulled before his final run surrendered came around to score. Handed a loss, the 32-year-old's season record now falls to 1-4, while his ERA has gone up to 3.14.

Tyler Clippard Picks Up a Save, Might Get a Few More Chances in the Final Games
Sep. 28, 2016
With closer Dellin Betances struggling mightily right now, the Yankees turned to Tyler Clippard to save Tuesday night's game, handing him the ball in the ninth with a two-run lead. He allowed a double and a walk in the inning but got out of things unscathed, striking out David Ortiz to end the game. Clippard has closing experience, with the Nationals early in his career and with the A's part of last season, so it makes sense that the Yankees would turn to him with Betances struggling. With just five regular season games remaining and Clippard available on the waiver wire in most leagues, he could be a useful pickup for fantasy owners in need of another save or two in the final week. Clippard is 1-3 with a 2.66 ERA and 9.5 K/9 since being traded to the Yankees from the Diamondbacks.

Tyler Clippard Struggles Once Again On Sunday, Losing Value
Jul. 25, 2016
For the second straight outing, Tyler Clippard gave up three earned runs in the ninth inning. This time, Clippard gave up three runs on three walks and one hit over his one inning. Since being moved into the closer role, Clippard has yet to record a save and has given up six runs in 4.1 innings. This past week has lowered Clippard's fantasy value as well as his real life value and Chip Hale might need to consider moving Daniel Hudson to the ninth if Clippard continues to give up runs in high leverage innings.
