James Paxton Struggles, Dodgers Still Triumph
by Matthew Adam | Dodgers Correspondent | Tue, Apr 30th 5:26am EDT
James Paxton labored through five innings, allowing four earned runs on six hits and five walks while striking out four in Monday's 8-4 win over the Diamondbacks.
Fantasy Impact:
Despite the victory, Paxton's performance was less than stellar, as his command issues led to a high pitch count and early exit. His season-long metrics, including a ballooning 1.68 WHIP and a low 5.3 K/9, suggest that fantasy managers should temper their expectations. Paxton's fantasy reliability appears shaky moving forward.
