Mitch Spence Struggles Mightily Against Phillies
by Chris Schommer | Athletics Correspondent | Sun, Jul 14th 9:08am EDT
Mitch Spence had a rough outing, allowing six earned runs and five walks over 3 2/3 innings in Saturday's 11-5 loss to the Phillies.
Fantasy Impact:
His performance was marred by inefficiency and lack of control, as evidenced by his 94 pitches to get through just over three innings while striking out six. This game inflates his ERA to 4.75 and raises concerns about his consistency and ability to handle pressure situations. Given his season stats, including a relatively high WHIP of 1.32 and a modest strikeout rate, fantasy managers might consider this performance a red flag. Spence's role in high-leverage situations could be reconsidered, making him a risky play in fantasy leagues.
