Burnes Stumbles Against Cubs, Orioles Fall 4-0

Corbin Burnes endured a challenging outing, yielding three earned runs on nine hits while striking out five over six innings in Wednesday's 4-0 loss to the Cubs.

Fantasy Impact:

Despite not issuing any walks, Burnes couldn't avoid the barrage of hits that ultimately led to his downfall in this contest. This performance slightly tarnishes his otherwise stellar season, where he boasts a 2.43 ERA and a 1.04 WHIP. His inability to suppress hits in this game could raise concerns about his consistency, especially considering his relatively high BABIP of .265. However, Burnes's solid overall metrics, including a commendable 4.40 strikeout-to-walk ratio, should keep him in good standing in fantasy rotations, though fantasy managers might start to watch for signs of regression if these hit-heavy outings become a pattern.
