Yankees RHP Gerrit Cole was tagged for three earned runs in just two innings of work on Tuesday against the Red Sox.
Fantasy Impact
Cole simply didn't have his trademark command in this one, and it led to multiple walks and multiple homers being allowed. The 2021 American League Cy Young candidate had a strong, if uneven, regular season. However, he became noticeably less consistent following MLB's ban on "sticky stuff." Cole will remain a bonafide SP1 heading into 2022 fantasy drafts, but this latest playoff loss will sting throughout the offseason.
