Medina Manages Royals, A's Secure 5-1 Victory
by Jesse Garcia | Athletics Correspondent | Thu, Jun 20th 8:42am EDT
Luis Medina delivered a solid outing on Wednesday, allowing just one earned run on six hits and two walks while striking out three over 5.2 innings as the Athletics topped the Royals 5-1.
Fantasy Impact:
This performance marked a step in the right direction for Medina, who has struggled with a high 4.71 ERA and 1.48 WHIP through his first four starts of the season. His ability to limit the Royals to a single run could be a sign of settling into a more consistent rhythm. However, fantasy managers should remain cautious, as his season-long metrics like a low 5.6 K/9 and a 1.30 strikeout-to-walk ratio still leave much to be desired. Medina's outing may provide some temporary relief for those in deeper leagues, but he'll need to build on this start to become a reliable fantasy option.
