Griffin Canning delivered a mediocre performance in Tuesday's 6-5 loss to the Astros, allowing two earned runs on five hits and three walks while striking out only two over five innings.
Fantasy Impact
While not a particularly dominant performance from Canning, this outing continues a solid month of pitching for the righty, as he's logged at least five frames while giving up two runs or less in each of his last four starts. After struggling over the first month of the campaign, Canning has turned in a 1.99 ERA and 1.15 WHIP across 22 2/3 innings in May. It'd be to see him getting him more strikeouts (16.5 K%), but Canning is back on the fantasy radar for deeper leagues.
Griffin Canning delivered a strong performance, allowing just one earned run on five hits and three walks while striking out five over six innings in Wednesday's 7-2 win over the Cardinals.
Fantasy Impact
This outing was a breath of fresh air for Canning, whose season has been marred by a high 5.21 ERA and a 1.35 WHIP through his first nine starts. The quality start should provide a slight boost to his fantasy value, especially considering his subpar strikeout rate (6.6 K/9) and FIP (5.10) this season. While this performance might not signal a complete turnaround, it does offer hope to fantasy managers that Canning can build on this success. However, given his overall season metrics, caution is advised before fully trusting him in fantasy lineups.
Griffin Canning tossed a solid outing, allowing zero earned runs on three hits and two walks while striking out three over 5 2/3 innings in Friday's 2-1 loss to the Royals.
Fantasy Impact
Despite the strong performance, Canning's season has been less than stellar, marked by a high 5.75 ERA and a modest 6.4 K/9 across eight starts. This outing, however, could be a sign of turning things around, especially considering his ability to limit the Royals to just three hits. His 1.35 WHIP and 5.08 FIP suggest there's still a lot of room for improvement, but performances like this one might hint at a potential upward trend. Fantasy managers should keep an eye on Canning, as consistency in upcoming starts could make him a viable streaming option or even a regular in deeper leagues.
