Randy Vasquez's Rocky Outing in Loss to Colorado
by Chase Davis | Padres Correspondent | Sat, Aug 3rd 9:55am EDT
Randy Vasquez allowed one earned run on three hits and two walks while striking out four over five innings in Friday's 5-2 loss to the Rockies.
Fantasy Impact:
Despite a decent performance that saw him limit damage on the scoreboard, Vasquez's outing wasn't enough to secure a win for the Padres. His season-long metrics, including a 4.62 ERA and a 1.53 WHIP, continue to paint the picture of a pitcher who struggles with consistency. With a modest strikeout rate of 5.9 K/9 and a high BABIP of .339, fantasy managers should remain cautious. Vasquez's ability to eat innings without significant damage is a plus, but his limited strikeout upside and high WHIP make him a risky play in most fantasy formats.
