David Festa's tough luck continues in Mets defeat

David Festa endured a hard-luck loss, allowing two earned runs on three hits and one walk while striking out six over five innings in Tuesday's 2-0 loss to the Mets.
Fantasy Impact:
Despite a solid performance that showcased his ability to limit hits and rack up strikeouts, Festa's season continues to be marred by an inflated ERA, now standing at 6.98. His WHIP of 1.40 and high strikeout rate (9.8 K/9) suggest potential, but the high ERA and FIP (5.89) indicate ongoing struggles with run prevention. Fantasy managers should view Festa as a high-risk, high-reward option, potentially valuable in strikeout categories but a liability in ERA and WHIP until he shows more consistent control and effectiveness.
