Spencer Arrighetti's solid outing wasted in loss
by Chris Schommer | Astros Correspondent | Sun, Jul 14th 7:13am EDT
Spencer Arrighetti pitched well but didn't get the support he needed, allowing only one earned run on two hits and three walks while striking out seven over six innings in Saturday's 2-1 loss to the Rangers.
Fantasy Impact:
Despite this strong performance, Arrighetti's season has been marred by inconsistency, as evidenced by his elevated 5.63 ERA and 1.60 WHIP over 17 starts. His solid strikeout rate of 10.5 K/9 continues to be a silver lining, suggesting potential for fantasy relevance, particularly in leagues that reward strikeouts heavily. However, his high ERA and WHIP, combined with a lackluster win-loss record, make him a risky play in most formats. Fantasy managers should consider him a matchup-dependent option, particularly in deeper leagues or as a streaming candidate when he's poised to face a weaker lineup.
