Eligibility
Corbin Burnes delivered a solid outing, allowing three earned runs on six hits and one walk while striking out five over 7.1 innings in Thursday's narrow victory against the Marlins.
Fantasy Impact
Despite not factoring into the decision, Burnes maintained his strong season form, evidenced by his 2.45 ERA and 1.04 WHIP. His performance in this game, though not spectacular, aligns with his season-long reliability as a top-tier fantasy starter. The slight uptick in earned runs compared to his season average could raise eyebrows, but his consistent strikeout ability and control should keep him firmly in the upper echelon of fantasy pitchers. His ability to pitch deep into games, as shown again today, continues to provide valuable innings for fantasy managers.
Corbin Burnes delivered a strong outing in Friday's 9-1 victory over the Rangers, allowing just one earned run on two hits and four walks while striking out six over six innings.
Fantasy Impact
This performance underscores Burnes's consistency this season, maintaining a stellar 2.38 ERA and a 1.04 WHIP across 20 starts. His ability to suppress hits, evidenced by a .261 BABIP, combined with a solid 8.4 K/9 rate, continues to make him a reliable option in fantasy rotations. While the walks in this game were slightly higher than usual, his overall 4.00 K/BB ratio suggests this may be more of an anomaly than a trend. Fantasy managers should continue to deploy Burnes with confidence, as he remains a top-tier starter in all formats.
Corbin Burnes endured a challenging outing, yielding three earned runs on nine hits while striking out five over six innings in Wednesday's 4-0 loss to the Cubs.
Fantasy Impact
Despite not issuing any walks, Burnes couldn't avoid the barrage of hits that ultimately led to his downfall in this contest. This performance slightly tarnishes his otherwise stellar season, where he boasts a 2.43 ERA and a 1.04 WHIP. His inability to suppress hits in this game could raise concerns about his consistency, especially considering his relatively high BABIP of .265. However, Burnes's solid overall metrics, including a commendable 4.40 strikeout-to-walk ratio, should keep him in good standing in fantasy rotations, though fantasy managers might start to watch for signs of regression if these hit-heavy outings become a pattern.
Corbin Burnes pitched well but didn't get enough support, allowing two earned runs on four hits and one walk while striking out six over six innings in Thursday's 7-3 loss to the Mariners.
Fantasy Impact
Despite a strong outing, Burnes was let down by his team's offense and bullpen, which couldn't keep the game close. His season ERA slightly rose to 2.32, but his performance continues to be top-notch, maintaining a WHIP of 1.02 and a solid strikeout-to-walk ratio. Burnes remains a high-end fantasy option due to his consistent ability to limit runs and rack up strikeouts, and while wins might be harder to come by if the Orioles' bullpen and offense don't provide the necessary support, his individual metrics should keep him valuable in all formats.
Corbin Burnes will start Thursday again as the Mariners.
Fantasy Impact
Burnes will be making his return from the paternity list to start the series finale with Seattle. He has a 2.28 ERA and a 1.03 WHIP in 17 starts this season.
