Charlie Morton stumbles against Marlins

Charlie Morton struggled in Friday's 4-3 loss to the Marlins, allowing four earned runs on seven hits and four walks while striking out three over six innings.

Fantasy Impact

This performance slightly inflates his already middling ERA to 4.08 and WHIP to 1.32 for the season, which are concerning metrics for fantasy managers relying on him for better outcomes. His strikeout rate remains decent at 9.2 K/9, but his FIP at 4.42 suggests some underlying issues that haven't improved. Given these numbers, Morton's reliability as a fantasy starter is becoming more questionable, and managers might want to consider matchup-based plays or seek more consistent options.
