Sanchez Stumbles Against Yankees
by Jesse Garcia | Phillies Correspondent | Wed, Jul 31st 9:34pm EDT
Cristopher Sanchez took a tough loss Wednesday, allowing six earned runs on eight hits and one walk while striking out seven over 5.2 innings against the Yankees.
Fantasy Impact:
This outing marked a rare blip in what has been a strong season for Sanchez, whose ERA rose to 3.36 and WHIP to 1.28 after this game. Despite the setback, his solid season-long metrics, including a commendable 2.80 FIP and a 3.16 strikeout-to-walk ratio, suggest that this performance is more of an anomaly than a trend. Fantasy managers should consider this start a hiccup and continue to deploy Sanchez with confidence, given his ability to maintain a good strikeout rate and overall effectiveness on the mound.
