Zac Gallen

Zac Gallen delivered a masterful performance, allowing just one hit and zero earned runs while walking three and striking out six over six innings in Tuesday's 6-2 victory over the Reds.

Fantasy Impact

This outing continues a strong season for Gallen, who now boasts a 2.84 ERA and a 1.13 WHIP through eight starts. His ability to maintain a high strikeout rate (9.7 K/9) while keeping runs off the board is a boon for fantasy managers. The slight concern remains his walk rate, but performances like this solidify his status as a top-tier fantasy starter.

It was not clear what was bothering Gallen, but it was clear there is an apparent injury. Fantasy managers should expect the Diamondbacks to release more information soon.

Zac Gallen struggled in Saturday's 7-3 loss to the Giants, allowing five earned runs on nine hits and one walk while striking out six over five innings.

Fantasy Impact

This outing marks a noticeable dip in performance for Gallen, whose ERA ballooned to 3.00 from an impressive earlier mark. Despite this setback, his season metrics, including a 10.7 K/9 and a 4.00 strikeout-to-walk ratio, still suggest high strikeout potential which can be valuable in fantasy leagues. However, his elevated 0.352 BABIP might indicate that some regression was due, and fantasy managers should monitor his next starts closely to gauge if adjustments are made or if this game was just a bump in the road.
