Carlos Carrasco Stumbles Again in Guardians' Loss
by Matthew Adam | Guardians Correspondent | Tue, Jul 23rd 6:14am EDT
Carlos Carrasco endured another rough outing, surrendering six earned runs on nine hits while striking out six over 5.1 innings in Monday's 8-2 loss to the Tigers.
Fantasy Impact:
This performance continues a concerning trend for Carrasco, whose season ERA has now ballooned to 5.32. His WHIP stands at 1.38, and with a K/9 of just 7.3, he's not offering much in the way of strikeouts to offset the damage. Given these metrics and his 3-8 record, fantasy managers should be wary of relying on him in all but the deepest of leagues or perhaps as a streaming option against less formidable offenses. Carrasco's inability to limit hits and runs this season makes him a risky play in standard formats.
