Tyler Phillips struggles, Phillies still triumph
by Chris Schommer | Phillies Correspondent | Sun, Jul 14th 9:17am EDT
Tyler Phillips allowed four earned runs over six innings while striking out five in the Phillies' 11-5 victory over the Athletics on Saturday.
Fantasy Impact:
Despite giving up six hits and four runs, Phillips managed to avoid any walks, which helped prevent a larger rally by the Athletics. This outing nudged his ERA to 4.50 and maintained his impressive WHIP at 0.90 through his first couple of appearances this season. His strikeout rate remains strong at 10.8 K/9, indicating potential for high strikeout totals, but his 4.76 FIP suggests some underlying concerns that could affect his reliability. Fantasy managers should view Phillips as a high-risk, high-reward option, particularly in leagues that reward strikeouts heavily.
