Jose Soriano allowed four earned runs over 4.2 innings while striking out six in the Angels' narrow 5-4 victory over the Pirates.
Fantasy Impact
Despite the win, Soriano's performance was less than stellar, yielding six hits and two walks. His season ERA now sits at an unsettling 4.32, with a WHIP of 1.35, reflecting ongoing struggles with consistency and control. While his strikeout rate remains decent at 8.6 K/9, his high FIP of 4.40 suggests that his struggles are not solely due to bad luck but also to underlying performance issues. Fantasy managers should view Soriano as a risky play, given his volatility and the lack of save opportunities in his role.
