Spencer Howard Stumbles Against Tigers
by Chase Davis | Giants Correspondent | Fri, Jul 12th 9:24am EDT
Spencer Howard allowed four earned runs over three innings in Thursday's 10-1 loss to the Tigers.
Fantasy Impact:
He surrendered seven hits and three walks while striking out four. This outing only inflates Howard's already bloated ERA to 6.33 and WHIP to 2.00, signaling ongoing struggles in his pitching performance. With a high BABIP of .407 suggesting some bad luck, his underlying metrics like a 4.32 FIP indicate that not all his issues can be chalked up to misfortune. Fantasy managers should view Howard as a risky play, given his current form and lack of role in save situations. His high K/9 continues to be a small silver lining, but it's overshadowed by his overall ineffectiveness this season.
