Chirinos Decent in Debut, Marlins Edge Cardinals 4-3
by Jesse Garcia | Marlins Correspondent | Thu, Jun 20th 8:15am EDT
Yonny Chirinos allowed two earned runs over five innings, striking out six in the Marlins' 4-3 victory over the Cardinals.
Fantasy Impact:
Despite giving up eight hits, Chirinos managed to keep walks off the board, which helped him limit the damage and maintain a decent ERA of 3.60 in his first start. His performance showed potential, especially with a solid 10.8 K/9 rate, but the high number of hits and a BABIP of .438 suggest some vulnerability. Fantasy managers should view Chirinos as a possible streaming option against weaker lineups if he remains in the majors, though his high WHIP of 1.60 could be a concern in tighter matchups.
