Abbott added four strikeouts and one walk. He allowed a pair of runs in the third and fifth innings before Kansas City poured in more runs late in the game off the Reds bullpen.

Andrew Abbott delivered a strong performance, allowing just one earned run on five hits and two walks while striking out six over 6.2 innings in Monday's 6-1 win over the Cardinals.

Fantasy Impact

This outing was a bright spot in what has been a somewhat inconsistent season for Abbott, characterized by a middling 3.59 ERA and a 1.29 WHIP. His 7.4 K/9 indicates moderate strikeout ability, but his high 5.14 FIP suggests some underlying issues that could lead to trouble. Despite these concerns, Abbott's ability to secure wins, now totaling 11, keeps him relevant in fantasy formats that value victories. Moving forward, fantasy managers should consider matchups carefully, as Abbott has shown vulnerability but also the potential for quality starts like today's.
