Cristian Javier stumbles hard against Tigers
by Chris Schommer | Astros Correspondent | Sun, May 12th 6:56am EDT
Cristian Javier had a rough outing in Saturday's 8-2 loss to the Detroit Tigers, allowing seven earned runs on five hits and four walks over just 1 1/3 innings.
Fantasy Impact:
This performance was a significant deviation from his otherwise stable season, ballooning his ERA from 4.01 to a less comfortable figure and skewing his WHIP and FIP negatively. Given his previous solid outings, fantasy managers might consider this start an anomaly, but the lack of strikeouts and high number of walks in this game could be concerning signs. Moving forward, it would be prudent for fantasy managers to monitor his next few starts closely for signs of recovery or further decline.
