Garrett Crochet crumbles as Phillies crush White Sox
by Chris Schommer | White Sox Correspondent | Sat, Apr 20th 9:12am EDT
Garrett Crochet endured a rough outing, surrendering seven earned runs on five hits and two walks while striking out three over three innings in Friday's 7-0 loss to the Phillies.
Fantasy Impact:
This performance significantly inflates his ERA, which was already teetering above the league average. Despite a strong start to the season with a commendable WHIP and an impressive strikeout rate, Crochet's latest start raises concerns about his consistency and ability to handle pressure situations. His high K/9 rate continues to be a silver lining for fantasy managers, but this blowup highlights the volatility in relying on him as a consistent starter. Moving forward, fantasy managers should tread cautiously, considering matchups and perhaps relegating Crochet to a streamer rather than a mainstay in rotations.
