Yu Darvish stumbles against Yankees in loss

Yu Darvish endured a rough outing, surrendering seven earned runs on nine hits and one walk while striking out five over 5 2/3 innings in Friday's 8-0 defeat to the Yankees.
Fantasy Impact:
This performance marked a significant deviation from his otherwise stellar season, where he boasts a 3.04 ERA and a 0.99 WHIP through his first 10 starts. The seven earned runs allowed in this game will inflate his ERA and could shake the confidence of fantasy managers relying on him as a top-tier starter. However, given his strong performance up to this point, it might be wise to chalk this up as an off day rather than a trend, especially considering his solid underlying metrics like FIP and K/9. Managers should monitor his next few starts closely but avoid any knee-jerk reactions to drop or trade him based on one bad start.
