Wicks Wilted: Cubs Fall to Dodgers in High-Scoring Affair
by Jesse Garcia | Cubs Correspondent | Thu, Sep 12th 8:24am EDT
Jordan Wicks struggled mightily in Wednesday's 10-8 loss to the Dodgers.
Fantasy Impact:
He allowed seven earned runs on eight hits and four walks while striking out only two over three innings. This outing inflates Wicks's already elevated ERA to 5.27 and WHIP to 1.61, further troubling signs for fantasy managers relying on him for stable starts. His season-long issues with control and susceptibility to hard hits (0.339 BABIP) were on full display, and his K/9 of 8.3 isn't enough to offset the damage. Given these persistent struggles, Wicks's role as a viable fantasy starter is increasingly questionable, and managers should consider other options for more reliable production.
