Tyler Alexander stands tall in narrow victory

Tyler Alexander allowed three earned runs over 7 1/3 innings while striking out four in the Rays' 4-3 win over the Blue Jays.
Fantasy Impact:
Despite giving up three hits and zero walks, Alexander's performance was a mixed bag, as the three earned runs slightly tarnished an otherwise efficient outing. His season ERA of 5.17 and WHIP of 1.21 suggest a struggle to consistently suppress runs, but his solid outing today hints at potential stability. Fantasy managers should remain cautious, however, as his high FIP of 5.28 indicates underlying issues that may not bode well for future outings. Alexander's low strikeout rate (7.1 K/9) also limits his upside in categories that reward strikeouts.
