This performance significantly impacts his season metrics, ballooning his ERA to 5.30 and casting doubts on his reliability as a fantasy starter. Despite a decent WHIP of 1.25 and a solid strikeout-to-walk ratio of 2.89, Luzardo's inconsistency in this outing, highlighted by a high number of hits and runs allowed, could make fantasy managers hesitant to deploy him without seeing a bounce-back performance. His ability to recover in subsequent starts will be crucial for those considering keeping him in their rotation.

Jesus Luzardo is reportedly likely to be traded this season.

Rosenthal named Luzardo the "single most likely" player to be traded. His name popped up in rumors this past offseason but a deal was never completed. It makes sense for Luzardo to be moved with the Marlins not contending as well as the fact that they have a handful of young starters on the team now alongside him.

This outing nudged Luzardo's ERA slightly upward to 4.18 and his WHIP to a still-respectable 1.14 for the season. Despite the loss, Luzardo's underlying metrics, including a solid 3.76 FIP and a decent 8.7 K/9, suggest he remains a viable fantasy option.

This outing was a significant rebound for Luzardo, whose season has been marred by a bloated 4.14 ERA and inconsistency. Today's game could be a turning point, as his ability to command the zone and limit baserunners was reminiscent of his underlying metrics, like a solid 1.09 WHIP and a decent 9.07 K/9 rate. Fantasy managers should take note of this performance as a potential indicator of Luzardo returning to form. However, given his overall season struggles, it might be wise to approach with cautious optimism, leveraging matchups wisely.

Jesus Luzardo delivered a masterful performance on Friday, blanking the Mets over six innings in an 8-0 victory for the Marlins.

Fantasy Impact

He allowed just five hits and zero walks while striking out seven. This outing was a significant turnaround from his rocky start to the season, where he posted a 5.02 ERA and 1.25 WHIP in his first seven starts. Luzardo's ability to command the zone, evidenced by no walks and a strong strikeout count, hints at potential consistency improvements. His season-long metrics like a high K/9 and solid FIP suggest underlying skills that could lead to more outings like this, making him a potential buy-low candidate in fantasy leagues. Keep an eye on his next few starts to see if this performance is a turning point or just a flash in the pan.
