Andrew Abbott clings to win despite control issues
by Chris Schommer | Reds Correspondent | Sun, Jun 9th 7:57am EDT
Andrew Abbott earned a shaky victory against the Cubs on Saturday, allowing one earned run on five hits and four walks while striking out five over five innings.
Fantasy Impact:
Despite the win, Abbott's performance was a tightrope walk of control and efficiency, barely managing to keep his team in the lead. His season-long metrics, including a 3.28 ERA and 1.19 WHIP, suggest a solid pitcher, but his elevated 4.76 FIP and low 6.9 K/9 indicate potential underlying issues. Fantasy managers should be cautious, as his high walk rate and low strikeout numbers could spell trouble in matchups against more disciplined teams.
