Chris Sale gets roughed up for his ninth loss of the season

Chris Sale talk as a Cy Young Award winner has probably come to an end. After going 8.0 and 9.0 innings over his last two games, Sale only lasted 4.0 innings on Wednesday. He was hit hard by the Phillies, giving up two doubles, a triple and a HR. Sale allowed six earned runs over his short day.
Fantasy Impact:
Chris Sale is obviously a must start in fantasy. He has games like this from time-to-time. However, over the six games leading up to this one, Sale went 8.0 or 9.0 innings. It was only a matter of time before fatigue had to set in. The hard part is that this game happened during an important time in most fantasy leagues. Look for Sale to bounce back in his next start.
