Meyer surrenders one run vs. Cardinals in Marlins' first win of the season

Max Meyer turned in a commendable performance against the Cardinals, steering the Marlins to a 10-3 victory and their first win of the year.

Fantasy Impact:

Over 6 innings, Meyer limited the Cardinals to just 3 hits and a single earned run, walking one and striking out three on 83 pitches. This outing not only secured his first win of the season but also showcased his potential value in fantasy leagues, especially considering his 2.45 ERA and 0.73 WHIP over his first two starts. The low strikeout numbers could be a concern for fantasy managers relying on punchouts, but his efficiency and effectiveness in run prevention can't be ignored. Given his current form, Meyer could be a solid pick for those looking to bolster their pitching stats, though his strikingly low .103 BABIP suggests some regression might be on the horizon. Nonetheless, if Meyer can maintain his control and continue to limit damage, he could prove to be a valuable asset in fantasy rotations, especially in deeper leagues or as a streaming option against favorable matchups.
