Nola Stumbles Against Blue Jays, Phillies Fall 5-3

Aaron Nola (SP - PHI)

Aaron Nola had a rough outing in Wednesday's 5-3 loss to the Blue Jays.

Fantasy Impact
He allowed four earned runs on nine hits and struck out seven over 5.2 innings, taking his third loss of the season. This performance slightly tarnishes what has been a solid season for Nola, pushing his ERA to 3.86 and WHIP to 1.22. Despite the setback, his strikeout numbers remain strong, and his control was evident as he issued no walks. However, the increase in hits allowed this game could be a concern if it turns into a trend. Fantasy managers should keep an eye on his next few starts for any signs of lingering issues but shouldn't panic just yet given his overall solid metrics this season.
