Charlie Morton Shines in Braves' Victory Over Marlins
by Chase Davis | Braves Correspondent | Fri, Aug 2nd 8:10am EDT
Charlie Morton delivered a strong performance in Thursday's 4-2 win against the Marlins.
Fantasy Impact:
He tossed six scoreless innings, allowing just five hits and two walks while striking out six. This outing was a breath of fresh air for Morton, who has been battling with a somewhat inflated ERA of 3.97 and a WHIP of 1.25 this season. His ability to keep the Marlins off the scoreboard could be a sign of returning stability, making him a potentially safer play in fantasy lineups. Given his solid K/9 rate of 8.8, if Morton can maintain this form, he could provide decent strikeout upside and more quality starts, enhancing his fantasy value as the season progresses.
