Flaherty Falters, Tigers Fall to Rays 7-5

Jack Flaherty struggled in Wednesday's matchup, allowing four earned runs on seven hits while striking out six over five innings as the Tigers lost to the Rays 7-5.
Fantasy Impact:
Despite not issuing any walks, Flaherty's performance was marred by the Rays' ability to capitalize on his pitches, leading to a less than stellar outing. This game nudges his ERA up to 4.94, a slight detour in what has been a decent season with a strong 11.1 K/9 and a solid 9.00 strikeout-to-walk ratio. Fantasy managers should be mildly concerned about his inconsistency, but his high strikeout potential and low WHIP still make him a viable option in most leagues. However, today's game is a reminder of the volatility that can come with starting pitchers, and Flaherty's managers will hope for a bounce-back in his next outing.
