Carlos Carrasco took another loss as the Guardians were shut out 4-0 by the Rangers on Wednesday.

Fantasy Impact

Carrasco allowed two earned runs on five hits and one walk while striking out three over five innings. This outing continues a concerning trend for Carrasco, whose season ERA now sits at an inflated 5.16, with a WHIP of 1.46 across nine starts. His strikeout rate remains low at 6.8 K/9, and his FIP at 5.44 suggests that his struggles are not solely due to bad luck. Fantasy managers should be wary of relying on Carrasco in their starting rotations, as his performance indicators point to potential ongoing issues rather than a quick turnaround.

Carlos Carrasco endured another challenging outing, absorbing a loss as the Cleveland Guardians fell 6-3 to the Chicago White Sox on Friday.

Fantasy Impact

Carrasco allowed three earned runs on six hits and struck out five over seven innings, without issuing a walk. Despite a decent control shown by not walking any batters, his season-long issues persisted, reflected in his elevated 5.36 ERA and 1.49 WHIP through eight starts. His strikeout rate remains lower than ideal at 6.9 K/9, which doesn't help fantasy managers looking for high strikeout totals. The lack of dominant outings this season and a concerning 5.46 FIP suggest that Carrasco might not be a reliable option in fantasy lineups, especially in shallower leagues or those that heavily penalize earned runs.

Carlos Carrasco allowed one run on six hits over six innings on Sunday against the Angels.

Fantasy Impact

Carrasco picked up his second win on the season. He still holds a 5.67 ERA despite his strong start on Sunday with a matchup against the White Sox up next.

Carlos Carrasco endured a rough outing in Wednesday's 8-0 loss to the Red Sox.

Fantasy Impact

He allowed five earned runs on nine hits and one walk while striking out four over five innings. This performance marked a significant bump in his ERA from 3.44 to a less flattering figure of 4.63, reflecting the struggles he faced against a potent Boston lineup. Carrasco's WHIP also took a hit, moving further away from the league average, which could be a concern for fantasy managers relying on his earlier season stability. His strikeout rate continues to hover below the desired mark for fantasy relevance, and this game did little to reassure managers of an immediate bounce-back. Moving forward, Carrasco's ability to regain control and limit hits will be crucial for his fantasy viability.
