Ben Lively's Effort Not Enough in Guardians' 2-1 Loss

by Chase Davis | Guardians Correspondent | Fri, Jun 28th 8:39am EDT

Ben Lively allowed two earned runs on six hits and one walk while striking out five over six innings, albeit in a losing effort against the Kansas City Royals on Thursday.

Fantasy Impact:

Despite his commendable outing, the Guardians fell short with a 2-1 defeat. Lively's season ERA slightly increased to 3.03, maintaining his status as a reliable starter in fantasy lineups, especially in deeper leagues. His consistent strikeout numbers and decent control, evidenced by a 2.90 strikeout-to-walk ratio, continue to make him a viable option, although his 4.24 FIP suggests some caution. Fantasy managers should keep an eye on his performance trends but can still consider him a steady rotation piece.
