Paul Blackburn struggles in short outing against Twins

Blackburn's season-long numbers have been underwhelming, with a 4.43 ERA and a 1.54 WHIP, making him a risky option moving forward.

Fantasy Impact

Despite his solid strikeout rate of 9.0 K/9, Blackburn's inconsistency makes him a difficult pitcher to trust in fantasy leagues.

Paul Blackburn tosses seven scoreless innings

Paul Blackburn fired seven strong frames Wednesday, allowing no runs on six hits and a walk while striking out eight.

Fantasy Impact

Blackburn's strong outing lowers his season ERA to 4.09 and WHIP to 1.50, while his impressive 9.2 K/9 and 2.85 strikeout-to-walk ratio continue to make him a viable fantasy option moving forward. With a 0.362 BABIP suggesting some positive regression, Blackburn's performance in this game should provide confidence to fantasy managers considering him for their rotations.
