Hunter Greene shines, Reds offense falters

Hunter Greene (SP - CIN)

Hunter Greene delivered a strong performance, allowing zero earned runs on five hits and four walks while striking out five over 5 2/3 innings in Friday's 3-0 loss to the Orioles.

Fantasy Impact
Despite a solid outing, Greene's effort wasn't enough to secure a win due to a lack of run support from the Reds' lineup. His season ERA now stands impressively at 3.12, and his WHIP at 1.17, reinforcing his status as a reliable fantasy option. Greene's high strikeout rate (10.5 K/9) continues to make him a valuable asset in fantasy leagues, especially in categories that reward strikeouts. However, his walk rate in this game could be a point of concern if it becomes a recurring issue. Overall, Greene remains a strong fantasy starter, though his win potential may be limited by the Reds' offensive struggles.
