In a disheartening performance against the New York Yankees on Monday, Jesus Luzardo's struggles continued, casting shadows over his fantasy relevance early in the season.
Fantasy Impact
Over just 4.2 innings, Luzardo surrendered seven earned runs on eight hits and five walks, managing to strike out only four batters. This outing ballooned his ERA to an unsettling 7.20 and his WHIP to 1.53 over his first three starts of the season. Despite a promising 10.2 K/9 rate, his 1.89 strikeout-to-walk ratio and a 6.26 FIP indicate underlying issues that could persist without significant adjustments.
