Shota Imanaga Stumbles, Cubs Fall to Guardians
by Matthew Adam | Cubs Correspondent | Tue, Aug 13th 6:16am EDT
Shota Imanaga allowed three earned runs on seven hits and one walk while striking out three over five innings in Monday's 9-8 loss to the Guardians.
Fantasy Impact:
This outing was a bit of a stumble for Imanaga, whose season has otherwise been marked by strong performances. His inability to go deeper into the game or control the Guardians' lineup as effectively as usual could be a concern for fantasy managers relying on him as a consistent starter. However, given his excellent season stats, including a high strikeout-to-walk ratio and a respectable BABIP, this start is likely just a minor blip rather than a trend. Fantasy managers should keep an eye on his next few outings for any signs of recurring issues but remain confident in his overall value.
