Michael King Shines, Padres Fall Short
by Jesse Garcia | Padres Correspondent | Thu, Jul 11th 8:14am EDT
Michael King delivered a strong performance, allowing just one earned run on three hits and a walk while striking out nine over six innings in Wednesday's 2-0 loss to the Mariners.
Fantasy Impact:
Despite the solid outing, King's effort wasn't enough to secure a win, as the Padres' offense failed to provide run support. This season, King has maintained a commendable 3.41 ERA and a 1.23 WHIP across 19 starts, showcasing his ability to consistently challenge hitters, evidenced by his 10.5 K/9 rate. His latest performance reinforces his reliability as a fantasy option, particularly in leagues valuing strikeouts and ERA. However, his win potential may be hampered by the Padres' sporadic run support, as seen in this outing.
