Eligibility
Bailey Falter allowed three runs on six hits over 5 1/3 innings with three strikeouts and two walks on Sunday against the Rockies.
Fantasy Impact
Falter came just two outs away from what would have been a quality start. He remains someone worth streaming in certain matchups with limited upside.
Bailey Falter struggled in Monday's 5-1 loss to the Athletics, surrendering five earned runs on six hits over five innings while striking out five and walking none.
Fantasy Impact
This outing nudged his ERA up to 4.22 and his WHIP slightly increased, though it remains impressive at 0.94. Despite a decent strikeout-to-walk ratio of 3.29, Falter's ability to limit runs has been inconsistent, as evidenced by his rising ERA. Fantasy managers should be cautious and keep an eye on his next few starts for signs of improvement or further regression.
Bailey Falter delivered a strong performance on Tuesday, allowing just one earned run on three hits and two walks while striking out eight over seven innings in the Pirates' 2-1 win against the Brewers.
Fantasy Impact
This outing not only secured Falter's third win of the season but also demonstrated his ability to handle pressure in close games. Despite a season ERA of 3.33 and a stellar WHIP of 0.89, his K/9 remains modest at 6.0. However, his performance against the Brewers, where he managed to significantly increase his strikeout total, suggests potential for more high-strikeout games. Fantasy managers should note his low BABIP of .173, which indicates some luck is in play, but his improving command and control are promising signs for continued success.
Bailey Falter allowed two earned runs on four hits and one walk while striking out four over five innings in Wednesday's 9-1 loss to the Mets.
Fantasy Impact
Despite a relatively controlled performance in terms of hits and walks, Falter couldn't avoid the loss as his team provided little offensive support. His season ERA now sits at 4.05, with a commendable 0.95 WHIP, but his low strikeout rate of 4.5 K/9 continues to be a concern for fantasy managers looking for more punchouts from their pitchers.
Bailey Falter delivered a solid outing in the Phillies' 5-2 win over the Pirates on Friday.
Fantasy Impact
He allowed one earned run on four hits and struck out three over five innings, securing the win without issuing any walks. The left-hander has been strong on the mound of late, allowing one run or less in each of his last two starts for the Pirates. The 26-year-old will look to continue to turn his season around, but remains best left out of lineups until further notice.
