Alex Faedo's control wavers in Tigers' loss
by Chris Schommer | Tigers Correspondent | Sun, Aug 11th 6:48am EDT
Alex Faedo struggled with his command in a shaky outing against the Giants, allowing three walks while striking out one in a scoreless inning.
Fantasy Impact:
Despite not giving up any hits, Faedo's inability to control the strike zone was evident, as he needed 31 pitches to get through the inning. This performance reflects ongoing issues this season, highlighted by a less-than-ideal 4.89 FIP and a high walk rate that continues to inflate his WHIP to 1.30. While his ERA stands at 3.62, fantasy managers should be wary of his volatility, particularly in high-leverage situations given his history of blown saves and the lack of save opportunities. His strikeout rate is decent, but the poor command could undermine his value in leagues that penalize for walks.
