Fantasy Impact

DeSclafani induced 15 swinging strikes on 89 pitches, which will boost what is already a career-high swinging-strike rate. He has been inconsistent from start to start on account of his homer issues. DeSclafani owns a 4.40 ERA, 1.35 WHIP and 127 strike outs in 122 2/3 innings this season. His next start is scheduled for Friday, away against the Pirates.

Anthony DeSclafani surrendered six earned runs in four innings as the Reds lost to the Nationals 7-6.

Fantasy Impact

It's been a bit of a Jekyll and Hyde type of season for DeSclafani, as he drops to 7-7 with the loss. In April and May, the righty went 2-3 with a 4.97 ERA, 1.34 WHIP, 9.11. K/9 and 2.32 HR/9 across 11 starts. In June and July, he posted a 4-2 record with a 2.94 ERA, 1.22 WHIP, 10.10 K/9 and 0.92 HR/9 across 9 starts. However, DeSclafani seems to have reverted back to his early season struggles, sporting an 8.36 ERA in three August starts. He'll look to turn it around as the Reds attempt to stay within striking distance of an NL Wild Card spot.
