Ben Brown struggles in Cubs' narrow loss
by Chris Schommer | Cubs Correspondent | Sun, Jun 9th 7:54am EDT
Ben Brown took the mound against the Reds, enduring a rocky outing as he allowed three earned runs on three hits and one walk while striking out three over four innings in Saturday's 4-3 loss.
Fantasy Impact:
This performance slightly tarnishes his otherwise solid season stats, pushing his ERA up from 3.58. Despite the hiccup, Brown's season-long metrics like a 1.08 WHIP and a 10.4 K/9 ratio still make him a viable fantasy option, particularly in leagues that value strikeouts. However, his inability to pitch deep into games could be a concern for fantasy managers relying on him for more innings and potential wins. Moving forward, Brown's high strikeout ability remains appealing, but consistency will be key to his fantasy relevance.
