Nunez is a hold — steady, league-average work on the mound.

His expected ERA is 3.92, roughly in line with the league average of 4.10, and he has faced enough batters for that number to be trusted. His expected wOBA allowed is .305 against a .315 league average, so there is no gap worth buying or selling. The strikeout rate is 25.9%, above the 22.0% league mark, but the walk rate is 10.2%, also above league — the two roughly cancel. His swinging-strike rate of 15.8% and chase rate of 36.3% show swing-and-miss stuff, yet the hard-hit rate allowed (40.9%) and barrel rate allowed (6.3%) are right around league, and his expected ERA has been stepping down across the sample. That is a pitcher who is competent without an obvious edge. No inflated BABIP, no run of luck to correct. Hold. A 3.84 ERA and 1.31 WHIP with 0 SV is deep-league cover only, so hold as depth rather than chase the profile.
