Colin Rea

Colin Rea had a rough outing, allowing three earned runs on five hits and one walk while striking out four over four innings in Friday's 7-4 loss to the Diamondbacks.

Fantasy Impact

This performance was a bit of a stumble for Rea, who has been fairly reliable this season with a 4.20 ERA and a 1.23 WHIP over 26 starts. His inability to go deep into the game likely frustrated fantasy managers, especially considering his decent season-long strikeout-to-walk ratio of 3.20 and a BABIP of .273, which suggests he hasn't been overly lucky or unlucky. Moving forward, Rea's fantasy value might see a slight dip if he continues to have abbreviated outings like this.

Colin Rea delivered a solid performance, allowing no earned runs on three hits while striking out one and earning the save over 2.2 innings in Monday's 6-2 victory over the Phillies.

Fantasy Impact

This outing was a deviation from his usual role as a starter, showcasing his adaptability and effectiveness in a shorter appearance. Rea's season-long metrics, including a 4.14 ERA and a 1.22 WHIP, suggest moderate reliability, but his low strikeout rate (7.1 K/9) continues to limit his upside in fantasy formats that heavily reward strikeouts. His performance in this game, however, reinforces his value in formats that reward ERA and WHIP, where his ability to limit walks and maintain a decent ERA could be particularly beneficial.

Colin Rea had a disastrous outing in Wednesday's 13-2 loss to the Giants, allowing 10 earned runs on 11 hits and one walk while striking out only one over four innings.

Fantasy Impact

This performance significantly tarnishes his previously decent season stats, ballooning his ERA from 4.21 to a much less appealing figure. Given the severity of this blowup and its potential to skew his confidence and reliability, fantasy managers should be cautious. Rea's ability to bounce back in his next starts will be critical, but this game has undoubtedly shaken the trust of many. Keep an eye on his next outing to gauge whether this was a one-off disaster or a sign of deeper issues.

Colin Rea delivered a decent but unspectacular performance in Wednesday's 3-2 loss to the Cardinals, allowing two earned runs on four hits and two walks while striking out four over four innings.

Fantasy Impact

Despite a solid season with a 3.72 ERA and a 1.17 WHIP, this outing was a bit of a letdown for fantasy managers relying on him for deeper innings and more strikeouts, especially given his 7.3 K/9 rate. His FIP of 4.68 suggests some underlying concerns that could affect his reliability moving forward. Fantasy managers should consider this start a minor blip, but keep an eye on his ability to pitch deeper into games and manage his efficiency to maintain his season-long value.

Colin Rea managed to snag a win in Saturday's 9-5 victory over the Athletics, despite allowing four earned runs on eight hits with no walks and five strikeouts over 6 2/3 innings.

Fantasy Impact

This performance was a mixed bag for fantasy managers, as Rea's ability to avoid walks and secure strikeouts helped mitigate the damage from the runs and hits allowed. His season ERA slightly increased to 3.61, but maintaining a solid WHIP of 1.15 and a decent strikeout-to-walk ratio of 3.14 continues to make him a viable option in most fantasy formats. Given his overall solid season metrics, including 12 wins, Rea should remain a steady part of fantasy rotations, although managers might want to be cautious in matchups against high-scoring teams.
