Michael Lorenzen stumbles against Orioles
by Chris Schommer | Royals Correspondent | Sun, Jun 30th 7:46am EDT
Michael Lorenzen allowed five earned runs over five innings in the Rangers' 6-5 loss to the Orioles on Saturday.
Fantasy Impact:
He surrendered four hits and four walks while striking out three. This outing marks a significant deviation from his otherwise steady season, where he boasts a 3.40 ERA and a 1.18 WHIP. The five earned runs have inflated his ERA and exposed some underlying issues, notably his low strikeout rate and high FIP, which suggest he might be overperforming. Fantasy managers should be cautious, as his low BABIP (.222) prior to this game could indicate that some regression was already on the horizon. This performance might be a sign to temper expectations and evaluate other pitching options if his next few outings follow a similar trend.
