Jared Jones delivered a stellar performance, allowing just one hit and no runs while striking out seven over five innings in Tuesday's 3-1 loss to the Mets.
Fantasy Impact
Despite his strong outing, Jones didn't factor into the decision, as the Pirates' offense couldn't capitalize on his efforts. Jones has been a bright spot in the Pirates' rotation, boasting a 3.13 ERA, a 0.78 WHIP, and an impressive 12.5 K/9 through four starts. His ability to suppress walks and maintain a high strikeout rate makes him a valuable asset in fantasy leagues.
Jared Jones was handed his second loss of the season as the Pittsburgh Pirates fell to the Philadelphia Phillies 5-1 on Thursday, despite a solid performance with eight strikeouts over 6.1 innings.
Fantasy Impact
Jones's ability to keep the walks at bay, allowing none against a formidable Phillies lineup, was a highlight, even as he surrendered three earned runs on six hits. His season stats, boasting a 4.00 ERA, a stellar 0.94 WHIP, and an impressive 12.5 K/9 through three starts, suggest that Jones is on the right path, despite the Pirates' struggles to back him up offensively. The lack of support did little to tarnish his individual performance, which continues to be marked by a high strikeout-to-walk ratio (12.50) and an efficient 3.84 FIP. Fantasy managers should take note of Jones's high strikeout potential and low WHIP, as these indicators, combined with his ability to limit free passes, position him as a valuable asset in fantasy rotations, even as wins may be harder to come by on a Pirates team as the season progresses.
In a steady performance on the mound, Jared Jones notched seven strikeouts over six innings against the Orioles on Friday, yet couldn't escape with the win, as the Pirates fell 5-2.
Fantasy Impact
Despite allowing just six hits and zero walks, Jones was tagged with two earned runs, saddling him with his first loss of the season. The 22-year-old has shown the ability to miss bats to this point, registering at least seven strikeouts in both of his starts on the mound for the Pirates. The right-hander will look to harness his overpowering repertoire while hoping for more consistent run support from an inconsistent Pittsburgh lineup as the season continues.
