Scouting Report
Updated May 19, 2026
Jesus Luzardo, 28-year-old left-handed pitcher for the Philadelphia Phillies, continues to display extreme volatility in his second season with the team. Through nine starts, he carries a 3-3 record with a 5.07 ERA and 1.33 WHIP across 49.1 innings. Recent performance has been inconsistent: he melted down against Colorado (6 runs in 3 innings on May 9), but bounced back impressively with 6 scoreless innings against Boston (May 14). Luzardo has failed to go 5 innings in 3 of 9 starts and allowed 5+ runs in 4 outings. However, underlying metrics suggest better performance than actual results, with a 2.96 FIP and significant luck working against him (.278 BA allowed vs .236 xBA). He ranks elite in strikeout rate (91st percentile) and walk rate (82nd percentile), with 61 strikeouts to 13 walks. Considered a buy-low candidate despite inconsistency.
