Chris Bassitt Struggles But Escapes With Win Against Giants
by Jesse Garcia | Blue Jays Correspondent | Thu, Jul 11th 8:54am EDT
Chris Bassitt notched a win despite a shaky outing on Wednesday, allowing three earned runs on five hits and four walks while striking out six over five innings as the Blue Jays topped the Giants 10-6.
Fantasy Impact:
This performance was a bit of a stumble for Bassitt, whose ERA and WHIP for the season will see a slight uptick from this game. His season-long metrics, including a 3.52 ERA and a 1.43 WHIP, suggest better outings than this, but the elevated WHIP and BABIP (.329) indicate that he's been somewhat vulnerable to hits. Fantasy managers should be cautious, as his inconsistency in this outing could be a sign of underlying issues. However, his ability to still secure a win might offer some solace. Moving forward, Bassitt's strikeout capability (8.4 K/9) remains a valuable asset, but his control issues, highlighted by a 2.22 strikeout-to-walk ratio, need monitoring.
