Availability
Andrew Abbott allowed two earned runs on five hits and five walks while striking out three over five innings in Wednesday's loss to the Brewers.
Fantasy Impact
Abbott has provided mixed results on the mound of late, allowing more than two earned runs in three of his last six contests. The left-hander remains one of the more stable starting options as part of an inconsistent Reds starting staff for manager Terry Francona, carrying a 3.88 ERA and 1.44 WHIP with a 5-4 record and 1.6 K/BB ratio through 18 starts.
Andrew Abbott allowed three earned runs on six hits and one walk while striking out six over 5 1/3 innings in Friday's win over the Pirates.
Fantasy Impact
Abbott has offered mixed results on the mound of late, allowing three earned runs or more in four of his last eight trips to the mound. The left-hander remains one of the more stable starting options in the Reds rotation for manager Terry Francona while fighting inconsistent command, carrying a 3.90 ERA and 1.41 WHIP with a 5-4 record and 1.8 K/BB ratio through 17 starts.
Reds left-hander Andrew Abbott went five innings and allowed just one earned run while earning the win in a 10-2 rout of the Yankees on Saturday.
Fantasy Impact
Abbott wasn't electric as he allowed five hits and three walks on the afternoon, but he did strike out six and allowed just one runner to cross home plate. The victory improved the southpaw to 5-4 on the season, although it appears he has been flirting with danger. He carries a 3.83 ERA through 16 starts, but his 4.88 xFIP and 5.03 SIERA suggest some regression should be had moving forward.
Reds left-hander Andrew Abbott allowed one earned run on four hits across five innings in a no-decision on Sunday against the D-backs.
Fantasy Impact
Abbott's lone blemish on the afternoon came on a solo homer surrendered to Tommy Troy in the second inning, as the other three hits he scattered came as singles. He did walk three batters, but also struck out five on the day. Sunday's outing was the ninth straight start in which Abbott has allowed three earned runs or less, with six of those outings featuring one earned run or less. The southpaw will take a 3.95 ERA into his next scheduled start this weekend on the road against the Yankees.
Reds left-hander Andrew Abbott allowed three earned runs across six innings while taking the loss on Monday against the Padres.
Fantasy Impact
Abbott was solid in this one, allowing four hits, including a homer, while walking two and striking out six in his six innings of work. Despite the quality start, Abbott's offense was unable to offer much support while the bullpen allowed San Diego to tack on another three runs in a 6-2 defeat. The quality start was Abbott's third in a row, while he has allowed three earned runs or less in eight consecutive starts dating back to April 30. Although his 4.10 ERA is serviceable, he also owns a 4.89 xFIP and a 5.04 SIERA as his 53:33 K:BB through 74 2/3 innings leaves something to be desired. He is tentatively lined up to take on the Diamondbacks at home on either Saturday or Sunday.
