Robbie Erlin allowed two runs in six innings against the Angels on Wednesday. He gave up eight hits while striking out two. He lowered his season ERA to 3.33.
Fantasy Impact
Erlin allowed a few too many hits to limit a team to only two runs but the key to his success is limiting walks. He currently has a 1.01 WHIP but has a walk rate of .952 BB/9. If Erlin can maintain his elite control he can become a usable fantasy asset in deeper leagues. His biggest flaw is team construct and will struggle to get wins down the stretch.
