Fantasy Impact

This performance was somewhat pedestrian but effective enough to earn Eflin his third win of the season. Despite a lower-than-average strikeout total for this game, Eflin's season-long metrics like a 3.91 ERA and a 1.13 WHIP suggest he remains a reliable option in most fantasy formats. His excellent strikeout-to-walk ratio continues to be a highlight, indicating good control and decision-making on the mound. Fantasy managers should view Eflin as a steady, if not spectacular, contributor to their rotations, especially in leagues that value WHIP and ERA.

This outing nudged his ERA up to 4.08 and his WHIP to 1.19 for the season. Despite a decent strikeout-to-walk ratio of 7.50 and a solid FIP of 3.82, Eflin's inconsistency in limiting hits, as evidenced by a BABIP of .306, continues to hamper his fantasy reliability.
