Dylan Cease took the mound for the Padres and ended up on the losing side of a 4-1 score against the Yankees on Saturday.
Fantasy Impact:
Cease allowed four earned runs on eight hits while striking out nine over 6 2/3 innings. Despite this hiccup, Cease's season stats remain strong, with a 3.29 ERA and a 0.96 WHIP through 11 starts. His 11.2 K/9 ratio continues to be a bright spot, indicating his ability to generate swings and misses at an elite level. However, his susceptibility to the long ball in this outing is a reminder of the volatility that can come with pitchers who strike out a lot but can also give up hits in clusters. Fantasy managers should keep faith in Cease due to his overall solid numbers but be wary of matchups against high-power offenses that could exploit his occasional lapses in command.
