Ross Stripling stabilizes, but A's edge Orioles 3-2
by Chris Schommer | Athletics Correspondent | Sat, Apr 27th 10:10am EDT
Ross Stripling turned in a decent outing, allowing two earned runs on six hits while striking out three over 5 2/3 innings in the Athletics' 3-2 victory over the Orioles on Friday.
Fantasy Impact:
Despite the solid performance, Stripling's season has been less than stellar, marked by a high 4.98 ERA and 1.49 WHIP through six starts. His 6.6 K/9 indicates a lower strikeout rate which might not appeal to fantasy managers looking for high strikeout pitchers. The 3.64 FIP suggests some bad luck, considering his elevated .360 BABIP, but his winless record and modest strikeout totals make him a risky play in most fantasy formats. Moving forward, Stripling's fantasy value remains limited unless he can significantly improve his strikeout rate and overall command.
