by Chase Davis | Angels Correspondent | Fri, Jul 25th 8:39am EDT
Yusei Kikuchi allowed three earned runs on seven hits and two walks while striking out four over 4.2 innings in Thursday's loss to the Mariners.
Fantasy Impact:
After today’s performance, Kikuchi holds a 3.23 ERA and 1.40 WHIP with a 4-7 record across 22 starts this season. This outing marks the first time since May that he hasn't pitched long enough to qualify for a win. Kikuchi has been solid this year, but has lost some of the strikeout and walk gains he earned last year. Fantasy managers should expect him to pitch closer to his 4.29 xERA than his low-3.00s actual ERA.
