Randy Vasquez's steady outing not enough for win
by Chris Schommer | Padres Correspondent | Sat, Jul 6th 8:33am EDT
Randy Vasquez delivered a solid performance, allowing two earned runs on six hits and one walk while striking out six over 6 1/3 innings in Friday's 10-8 victory over the Diamondbacks.
Fantasy Impact:
Despite the Padres' high-scoring win, Vasquez's season-long stats—highlighted by a 4.66 ERA and a 1.60 WHIP—continue to paint the picture of a pitcher struggling with consistency. His 5.9 K/9 rate and high BABIP (.358) suggest that he's not missing many bats and might be experiencing some bad luck on balls in play. Fantasy managers should view Vasquez as a risky play, primarily in deeper leagues or as a streaming option, given his current form and underlying metrics.
