I'm wondering the same - is this a fluke or not? I don't know much about the guy.

I took a flier on him at league min in my 16-team, 40-man roster league. It's deep as hell, so might as well ride the "hot" streak, right?

I've got not problem with that and he isn't a bad play for K's but that career WHIP over 1.5 means it isn't going to last.

Wellemeyer owned hitters over the past month, going 4-0 in six starts with a 2.19 ERA. In only one outing -- his first start of the month -- he was unable to go six innings. Wellemeyer gave up only 28 hits in 37 innings, while striking out 12 batters and walking 12.

I didn't pick him up in my main league. :~( :~( :~(

I'm still refusing to acknowledge Wellemeyer is doing well cause the minute I do he is going to go in the tank. :^
