Patrick Corbin Struggles Again in Loss to Giants
by Matthew Adam | Nationals Correspondent | Tue, Aug 6th 6:48am EDT
Patrick Corbin endured another tough outing, allowing four earned runs on seven hits and one walk while striking out six over six innings in Monday's 4-1 loss to the Giants.
Fantasy Impact:
This performance continues a troubling trend for Corbin, whose season ERA now balloons to an unsettling 5.88, accompanied by a WHIP of 1.52. The left-hander's strikeout rate remains low at 6.7 K/9, indicating a lack of dominance on the mound, which is further underscored by a high BABIP of .339, suggesting he's been somewhat unlucky but also hittable. With a record of 2-13, fantasy managers should be wary of using Corbin in any but the most pitcher-friendly matchups, as his season-long metrics offer little in the way of optimism.
