Quinn Priester

Quinn Priester endured a challenging day on the mound, allowing two earned runs on five hits and four walks while striking out three over six innings in Wednesday's 4-0 loss to the Athletics.

Fantasy Impact

This performance slightly elevated his ERA to 3.31 and WHIP to 1.29 for the season, reflecting some control issues that weren't as evident in his previous outings. With a K/9 of 6.06 and K/BB of 1.83, Priester's underlying metrics suggest he might struggle to maintain effective outings without improvements in strikeout and walk rates. Fantasy managers should be cautious, as his low BABIP of .204 indicates some luck in previous games, which may not continue.

Quinn Priester delivered a strong performance, allowing no earned runs on just three hits and one walk while striking out six over six innings in Friday's 3-0 loss to the Giants.

Fantasy Impact

Despite Priester's solid outing, his efforts weren't enough to secure a win for the Pirates, leaving his season record untouched at zero wins and one loss. His season ERA improved to 3.48 and WHIP to 1.16, indicating a potentially reliable option in fantasy rotations, especially in deeper leagues. However, his moderate strikeout rate (7.0 K/9) and high FIP (6.06) suggest that fantasy managers should temper expectations. Priester's performance in this game could be a sign of stability, but his fantasy impact remains limited by the metrics and the Pirates' overall performance.

Quinn Priester is no longer the scheduled starter for Wednesday’s game with the Brewers.

Fantasy Impact

Josh Fleming is going to draw the start Wednesday. Considering Fleming has not gone deep into games this season, fantasy managers should expect Priester to pitch after Fleming.
