Miles Mikolas Struggles in Loss to Cubs
by Jesse Garcia | Cardinals Correspondent | Sun, Jul 14th 6:09pm EDT
Miles Mikolas was hit hard, allowing six earned runs on eight hits while striking out two over 5.1 innings in Sunday's 8-3 loss to the Cubs.
Fantasy Impact:
This outing inflates his ERA to 5.13 and continues a concerning trend of limited strikeout ability with a season K/9 of just 6.2. Mikolas's control remained intact with no walks issued, aligning with his strong 4.28 strikeout-to-walk ratio for the year. However, his susceptibility to the long ball and high hit rates this season could be alarming for fantasy managers relying on him for consistent starts. Given these factors, Mikolas might be trending towards a more cautious fantasy play, especially in leagues that heavily penalize for earned runs and hits.
