Eligibility
Spencer Arrighetti struggled in Wednesday's 4-3 loss to the Cubs, allowing four earned runs on seven hits and two walks while striking out seven over 3.2 innings.
Fantasy Impact
This performance did little to reassure fantasy managers, as his season ERA ballooned to an unsettling 10.97, accompanied by a WHIP of 2.34. Despite a solid strikeout rate of 12.7 K/9, Arrighetti's high BABIP of .500 suggests he's been somewhat unlucky, though issues with control and susceptibility to hits are glaring.
The Astros optioned Spencer Arrighetti to Triple-A Sugar Land.
Fantasy Impact
Arrighetti was optioned to make room for Forrest Whitley on the Astros’ roster. The 24-year-old posted an 11.57 ERA and a 2.29 WHIP in seven innings pitched through two games.
Spencer Arrighetti lasted just four innings, allowing two earned runs on four hits and two walks while striking out five in Monday's 6-1 loss to the Braves.
Fantasy Impact
Despite a slightly better outing compared to his disastrous season start, Arrighetti's performance still leaves much to be desired. His ERA slightly improved but remains alarmingly high at 11.57, coupled with a WHIP that didn't see much relief at 2.29. Fantasy managers should remain wary and consider him a risky play until he shows consistent signs of improvement.
Spencer Arrighetti's latest outing against the Kansas City Royals was a stark reminder of the volatility that can plague starting pitchers.
Fantasy Impact
