Gerrit Cole bounces back with strong outing against Orioles
by Chris Schommer | Yankees Correspondent | Sat, Jul 13th 6:27am EDT
Gerrit Cole delivered a solid performance, allowing just one earned run on five hits and one walk while striking out seven over six innings in Friday's 4-1 victory over the Orioles.
Fantasy Impact:
This outing was a refreshing change of pace for Cole, whose season has been marred by a bloated 5.40 ERA and 1.46 WHIP. The strong start should provide a bit of relief to fantasy managers who have been growing increasingly anxious about his high ERA and WHIP. While his season numbers still reflect inconsistency, this performance could be the turning point Cole needs to regain his form. Fantasy managers should keep a close eye on his next few starts to see if this game marks a true return to form or just a temporary respite.
