Michael King delivered a stellar performance, tossing six scoreless innings and allowing just six hits with no walks while striking out three in the Padres' 13-1 victory over the Diamondbacks on Saturday.
Fantasy Impact
This outing was a breath of fresh air for King, whose season has been marred by a less-than-stellar 4.29 ERA and a high 1.40 WHIP. His ability to avoid walks and keep runs off the board in this game could be a sign of turning things around, especially considering his solid 9.2 K/9 rate. However, his 5.80 FIP suggests that some underlying issues may still exist, potentially limiting his upside. Fantasy managers should remain cautious but optimistic, as performances like this could signal a positive adjustment in his approach.
