by Chase Davis | Fri, Jul 26th 8:22am EDT
Ross Stripling had a rocky outing but managed to snag a win as the Athletics narrowly defeated the Angels 6-5 on Thursday.
Fantasy Impact:
Ross Stripling allowed five earned runs on six hits and two walks while striking out three over 5.2 innings. Despite the victory, Stripling's season has been marred by high ERA and WHIP, sitting uncomfortably at 6.02 and 1.58 respectively. His low strikeout rate of 5.6 K/9 continues to limit his upside in fantasy formats that value pitchers with high strikeout totals. Given these metrics and his overall performance this season, fantasy managers should be cautious in relying on Stripling for consistent starts, especially in leagues where ERA and WHIP heavily influence scoring.
