Chris Bassitt endured a tough outing in Saturday's narrow 3-2 loss to the Cubs.
Fantasy Impact:
He allowed three earned runs on five hits and two walks while striking out five over five innings. This performance slightly worsens his already middling season stats, nudging his ERA up to 4.34 and his WHIP to 1.44. Given these numbers and his inconsistent season performance, Bassitt remains a risky play in fantasy leagues. His strikeout rate of 8.7 K/9 continues to be a silver lining, but fantasy managers should be cautious, especially in matchups against high-scoring teams.
