Detroit Tigers starting pitcher Matthew Boyd outdueled the combination of Lance Lynn and Sonny Gray on Sunday, tossing six innings while allowing five hits and three earned runs as part of an 11-7 Tigers victory. He also struck out six and walked just one, throwing 64 of his 98 pitches for strikes. Two of his three earned runs came via solo homers as Aaron Hicks and Luke Voit took him deep in the 1st and 4th innings, respectively. Boyd's season numbers don't jump off the page, but he's definitely worth streaming when faced with a favorable matchup. He has a 9-12 record, 4.24 ERA, 1.13 WHIP, and 137/46 strikeout-to-walk ratio over 153 innings. Give Boyd a look if you are in a 12+ team or AL-only league.

Detroit Tigers starting pitcher Matthew Boyd tossed six innings against the Royals on Tuesday, and five of those innings were pretty darn good. The problem for Boyd was the one bad inning, a five-run frame in the third inning. Boyd allowed a single and a walk through the first two innings before the outburst, and after that five-run frame managed to retire 11 of the next 13 batters to finish out six innings. It's a small silver lining for Boyd, who falls to 8-12 on the year with a 4.22 ERA, but it does reiterate what we've seen from him all season: Boyd has potential to be a serviceable starter for fantasy purposes when he puts it all together.

Boyd (8-12) took the loss Tuesday, allowing five runs on seven hits and three walks while striking out four over six innings against the Royals.

Detroit Tigers starting pitcher Matthew Boyd has struggled for much of the 2018 season, but turned in a solid performance on Thursday. The young southpaw threw six innings against the White Sox, keeping them off the scoreboard while scattering six hits and six strikeouts and issuing just one walk. Boyd is, at best, a streaming option against teams who struggle to hit lefties, but it was still a positive sign for a player looking to finish out the season on a high note. At age 27, Boyd still has potential to become a relevant fantasy starter in the future.

Boyd (8-11) fired six scoreless innings and earned the win Thursday, yielding six hits and a walk while striking out six in the 7-2 win over the White Sox.

Detroit Tigers starting pitcher Matthew Boyd pitched a very serviceable game on Thursday afternoon against the Chicago White Sox, throwing six strong innings of six-hit, no-run baseball. Boyd also registered six strikeouts against just one walk, throwing 65 of his 103 pitches for strikes to improve his record to 8-11 for the year. Boyd has enjoyed a resurgent season in 2018, posting career-bests with a 4.09 ERA, 1.05 WHIP, and 127/42 strikeout-to-walk ratio across 141 innings. Boyd has a good K/9 (8.07) and HR/9 (1.1), so it is conceivable that he can remain fantasy-relevant for the remainder of the year when faced with plus-matchups.

Detroit Tigers starting pitcher Matthew Boyd will take the hill at home Tuesday against the Reds, a team that beat him up handily in their only meeting earlier this season. On June 19, Boyd allowed five runs in just four innings of work, and was hurt badly by three walks and a Joey Votto grand slam. Boyd owns a putrid 6.00 ERA in the month of July, but has a 3.40 home ERA on the year. Despite his solid numbers at home, he's probably one to avoid. After all, he's allowed five or more runs in four of his last seven starts.

Boyd (5-9) allowed two runs on seven hits while striking out seven over six innings in a win over the Royals on Wednesday. He did not walk a batter.

Boyd threw six innings, allowed two earned runs off of seven hits, and walked no one while striking out seven. The win was his first since June 7 against the Red Sox, and it moves his record to 5-9 on the season. Boyd also sports a 4.53 ERA and a 100/38 K/BB ratio in 109 1/3 innings and is not quite on the fantasy radar at the moment.

The Detroit Tigers have watched their losing streak reach 10 games after falling to Toronto on Friday. Starting pitcher Matthew Boyd will look to right the ship as he takes the hill Saturday. Boyd has had two straight rough outings against Cincinnati and Cleveland, and has seen his ERA climb almost a full run since the end of May. The Jays have hit lefties at a .233 clip on the year, and outrank the Tigers in terms of runs scored by a margin of 30 on the year, so it's not a sure thing for Boyd by any means.

Detroit Tigers starting pitcher Matthew Boyd was annihilated by the Cleveland offense on Sunday, allowing six runs in just three innings of work. Things really got out of hand when Artie Lewicki couldn't do any better, allowing six more runs in 4 1/3 innings. Boyd's rough outing pushes his season ERA up to 4.15. After an excellent April and solid May, Boyd has fallen flat since the calendar turned to June, posting a 6.75 ERA for the month. He's not worth much in most formats for the time being.

Detroit Tigers starting pitcher Matthew Boyd (oblique) was cruising on Tuesday against the Twins, firing four innings of scoreless ball, before suffering a left oblique spasm cut his evening short. When Boyd walked the first two batters he faced in the fifth inning, he was visited by pitching coach Chris Bosio and ultimately the team's head trainer. That visit resulted in an early exit for the young lefty. The team is calling him day-to-day and doesn't expect Boyd to miss any time, but wanted to play it safe considering the mountain of injuries the team is already dealing with.

Boyd was pulled from Tuesday's game against the Twins with left oblique spasms, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.

Detroit Tigers starting pitcher Matthew Boyd had himself a solid start on Thursday against the 24-19 Mariners. Boyd threw for six innings, allowing two runs on six hits while striking out nine and walking just one. The Tigers rallied to win the game late, meaning Boyd had to settle for the no-decision despite the strong start. The nine strikeouts marked a season high for him, and he'll take a 3.19 ERA and 1.06 WHIP into his next scheduled start on the road against the Twins. He's someone to keep an eye on in deeper leagues, as he has been pitching well to this point.

Detroit Tigers starting pitcher Matthew Boyd will take the bump Friday as the Tigers face off against the Mariners at Comerica Park. There is only one current Mariner who has ever faced Boyd, and only for one at bat, so there's not exactly a lot of data to draw on for this matchup. But one thing in Boyd's favor will be his numbers in his home ballpark. On the year, Boyd has a 1.47 ERA across three starts in Detroit and has struck out 14 batters in 18 1/3 innings of work. He'll look to keep that rolling as he tries to pick up his second win of the year.
