Matt Waldron struggles as Padres fall to Diamondbacks
by Chris Schommer | Padres Correspondent | Sun, Jul 7th 7:31am EDT
Matt Waldron turned in a middling performance in Saturday's 7-5 loss to the Diamondbacks.
Fantasy Impact:
He allowed three earned runs on five hits and two walks while striking out six over six innings. Despite this outing, Waldron's season ERA slightly increased, but his overall metrics like a 3.61 ERA and 1.18 WHIP still paint the picture of a reliable starter in most fantasy formats. His 8.4 K/9 ratio continues to offer decent strikeout potential, though his win-loss record remains unimpressive. Fantasy managers should view Waldron as a solid middle-of-the-rotation option, particularly in formats that reward innings pitched and strikeouts, but temper expectations on his impact in the wins column.
