View More NewsJavier Assad's solid outing not enough for Cubs
Javier Assad delivered a quality start but didn't factor into the decision in Friday's 5-4 loss to the Reds, allowing two earned runs on five hits and three walks while striking out seven over 5 1/3 innings.
Fantasy Impact
Despite the Cubs' defeat, Assad's performance was a silver lining, as he continued to demonstrate his ability to manage games effectively. His season ERA slightly rose to 2.27, but it remains impressive, along with a solid 1.18 WHIP and an 8.7 K/9 rate. Assad's ability to maintain a low BABIP (.256) and a decent strikeout-to-walk ratio (2.35) suggests that he can be a reliable option in fantasy rotations, especially in leagues that value strikeouts and ERA. His consistent performance this season should keep him in good standing in fantasy circles, though his win potential may be hampered by the Cubs' inconsistencies.
