"Ben Brown Struggles with Control Against Mets"
by Chase Davis | Cubs Correspondent | Fri, May 3rd 9:04am EDT
Ben Brown had a rough outing allowing two earned runs on three hits and five walks while striking out five over 4.2 innings in Thursday's 7-6 loss to the Mets.
Fantasy Impact:
His inability to limit walks significantly hampered his performance, leading to an early exit after just 89 pitches. This season, Brown's ERA slightly worsened to 4.23, and his WHIP increased to 1.27, reflecting ongoing struggles with command. Despite a decent strikeout rate of 8.8 K/9, his elevated walk rate is a concerning trend for fantasy managers. Brown's high FIP of 3.32 suggests some bad luck, but his control issues need to be addressed to improve his fantasy viability.
