Drew Rasmussen roughed up in short outing
by Chris Schommer | Rays Correspondent | Sun, Aug 11th 9:16am EDT
Drew Rasmussen struggled mightily in Saturday's 7-5 loss to the Orioles, allowing three earned runs on four hits over just one inning.
Fantasy Impact:
The lack of strikeouts and control over the strike zone was evident, as he failed to register a single K while his ERA ballooned to 9.00. Given this performance, Rasmussen's fantasy value takes a hit, especially considering his inability to work deep into games or suppress hits. His high BABIP suggests some bad luck, but the absence of strikeouts in this outing is concerning for fantasy managers relying on him for those stats. Moving forward, unless he shows significant improvement, Rasmussen might be a risky play in most fantasy formats.
