Brandon Pfaadt delivered a strong performance, allowing just one earned run on two hits and two walks while striking out nine over seven innings in Wednesday's 2-1 victory over the Reds.

Fantasy Impact

This outing marks a significant improvement for Pfaadt, who entered the game with a somewhat inflated 4.17 ERA and three losses. His ability to maintain a low WHIP of 1.11 and a solid strikeout-to-walk ratio of 5.10, alongside today's high strikeout count, underscores his potential value in fantasy leagues, particularly in categories like strikeouts and WHIP. While wins remain scarce, his underlying metrics, including a 3.48 FIP and a reasonable .288 BABIP, suggest better outcomes may lie ahead. Fantasy managers should consider Pfaadt a viable streaming option or even a regular starter in deeper leagues, given his ability to rack up strikeouts and keep runs off the board.

Fantasy Impact

He allowed three earned runs on five hits and two walks over six innings, striking out none. This performance marked a deviation from his usual strikeout capabilities, as evidenced by his season K/9 of 8.0. The lack of strikeouts in this game could be a concerning sign, particularly when combined with his escalating ERA, now at 4.60. Pfaadt's WHIP remains decent at 1.19, suggesting some control, but his inability to miss bats in this outing could hint at potential struggles ahead if not quickly rectified. Fantasy managers should monitor his next few starts closely for signs of improvement or further regression.

Brandon Pfaadt struggled in Saturday's 13-1 loss to the Padres, allowing three earned runs on ten hits while striking out four over six innings.

Fantasy Impact

The lack of walks was a small silver lining in an otherwise disappointing performance that saw his ERA rise to 4.61. Despite a solid season-long K/9 of 9.2 and an excellent strikeout-to-walk ratio of 7.00, Pfaadt's ability to limit damage has been inconsistent, as evidenced by his elevated BABIP of .325. This outing underscores some of the volatility associated with Pfaadt, making him a risky play in fantasy lineups, particularly against high-powered offenses. His strong underlying metrics suggest potential, but fantasy managers should tread carefully, monitoring his starts for signs of improvement or further regression.
