Aaron Nola stumbles in desert drubbing
by Chris Schommer | Phillies Correspondent | Sun, Aug 11th 10:02am EDT
Aaron Nola struggled in Saturday's 11-1 loss to the Diamondbacks, allowing three earned runs on nine hits and three walks while striking out four over five innings.
Fantasy Impact:
This outing marks a slight deviation from his otherwise steady season, where he's maintained a 3.60 ERA and 1.15 WHIP across 24 starts. Despite the rough game, Nola's season-long metrics, including an 8.4 K/9, suggest he remains a reliable option in fantasy rotations. However, his increased susceptibility in this game could be a point of concern if it turns into a trend, especially considering his FIP indicates potential underlying issues not fully reflected in his ERA. Fantasy managers should keep a close eye on his next few starts for any signs of persistent struggles.
