Sean Manaea

Sean Manaea earned a win Monday, allowing three earned runs on six hits and one walk while striking out only one over six innings as the Mets edged the Cardinals 4-3.

Fantasy Impact

This performance was a mixed bag for fantasy managers, as Manaea's low strikeout total and trio of earned runs didn't exactly scream dominance, but a win is a win. His season ERA now sits at a respectable 3.31, though his WHIP of 1.39 and K/9 of 7.9 suggest volatility that could concern those in deeper leagues. Given his middling strikeout-to-walk ratio of 1.63, relying on Manaea for consistent fantasy production might be a gamble. His ability to secure wins, however, keeps him relevant in most formats.

Sean Manaea worked five innings in the Mets' 4-2 victory over the Cubs on Tuesday, allowing one earned run on three hits and four walks while striking out three.

Fantasy Impact

Despite a relatively solid ERA of 3.07 this season, Manaea's high WHIP of 1.43 and his tendency to issue walks could be troubling signs for fantasy managers. His strikeout rate remains strong at 9.2 K/9, but his strikeout-to-walk ratio of 1.67 suggests that control remains an issue. Fantasy managers should be cautious.

Sean Manaea delivered a mixed bag in Wednesday's 8-2 victory over the Giants.

Fantasy Impact

He tossed 101 pitches across 4.2 innings, allowing zero earned runs on four hits and four walks while striking out six. Despite a solid performance in terms of run prevention and strikeouts, Manaea's inability to go deeper into the game due to high pitch count and control issues (four walks) likely frustrated fantasy managers. His season ERA now sits at a 3.33 with a WHIP of 1.44, which are decent indicators of his overall effectiveness.

Sean Manaea delivered a mixed bag in Friday's 9-4 win over the Dodgers, allowing two earned runs on four hits and three walks while striking out three over five innings.

Fantasy Impact

This outing was a bit of a tightrope walk for Manaea, who managed to limit the damage despite allowing multiple baserunners. His season ERA now sits at a respectable 4.12, with a WHIP of 1.37, reflecting some inconsistency in his control. The 9.6 K/9 rate continues to offer fantasy value, suggesting he can rack up strikeouts, but his 2.10 strikeout-to-walk ratio this season indicates potential volatility. Manaea's performance today didn't exactly inspire confidence, but it didn't derail his fantasy relevance either. Owners should keep an eye on his walk rates and hope for more efficient outings ahead.

Sean Manaea struggled mightily in Saturday's 11-7 loss to the Royals.

Fantasy Impact

He allowed six earned runs on nine hits and three walks while striking out four over just 3 2/3 innings. This performance was a significant blow to his previously decent season stats, allowing more than one run for the first time in three starts on the mound for the Mets. Fantasy managers will hope Saturday's outing was more of an aberration and not a sign of things to come for the left-hander moving forward.
