DJ Herz Stumbles in Loss to Orioles
by Jesse Garcia | Nationals Correspondent | Wed, Aug 14th 9:56pm EDT
DJ Herz allowed two earned runs on four hits and two walks while striking out five over six innings in Wednesday's 4-1 loss to the Orioles.
Fantasy Impact:
Despite a decent strikeout count and limiting hits, Herz's effort wasn't enough to secure a win, as the Nationals' offense failed to provide support. His season ERA now sits at 4.25 with a WHIP of 1.31, which are less than stellar numbers for fantasy managers. The high strikeout rate (11.1 K/9) continues to be a silver lining, suggesting potential for better outings if he can find more consistency. However, his current form makes him a risky play in fantasy lineups, especially in leagues that heavily penalize earned runs and losses.
