Joe Boyle stumbles again in loss to Brewers

Joe Boyle endured another challenging outing, surrendering five earned runs on five hits and four walks while striking out eight over five innings in Saturday's 9-5 loss to the Brewers.
Fantasy Impact:
This performance further inflates his already bloated ERA to 6.54 and WHIP to 1.69, underscoring a season marred by inconsistency and control issues. Despite a decent strikeout rate of 10.3 K/9, his high walk totals and susceptibility to allowing runs are red flags for fantasy managers. Given his current form and underlying metrics like a 4.64 FIP and a low 1.48 strikeout-to-walk ratio, Boyle remains a risky play in all but the deepest of fantasy leagues. His ability to miss bats is evident, but until he can refine his control and limit damage, his fantasy value will be limited.
