Eury Perez struggles Monday against Braves
by Nicholas Rodriguez | Marlins Correspondent | Tue, Apr 14th 5:23am EDT
Eury Perez allowed three earned runs on seven hits and two walks while striking out two over four innings in Monday's 10-4 win over the Atlanta Braves.
Fantasy Impact:
Perez opened the game strong with 1-2-3 innings in both the first and second. He worked around a leadoff double and a walk in the third, but ran into trouble in the fourth, allowing five hits and three earned runs. He then began the fifth with a single and a walk before Andrew Nardi came on in relief. Although his fastball velocity is up, averaging 98.2 mph, the struggles persist, as Perez owns a 5.40 ERA, 5.74 FIP and 1.55 WHIP through four starts. Fantasy managers have reason for concern following Monday’s outing, and his next scheduled start will not get any easier with a matchup against the Milwaukee Brewers on Sunday, a team that owns a .355 wOBA (fifth in MLB) against right-handed pitching this season.
