Max Meyer Survives Shaky Outing for a Win
by Jesse Garcia | Marlins Correspondent | Sun, Aug 11th 8:10pm EDT
Max Meyer managed to secure a win despite allowing four earned runs on seven hits while striking out four over 6.1 innings in Sunday's narrow 7-6 victory over the Padres.
Fantasy Impact:
While Meyer didn't issue any walks, the number of hits he allowed did inflate his ERA, which already stood at an unsettling 5.10 coming into the game. His performance today, characterized by a lack of control over the strike zone and an inability to miss bats consistently, suggests ongoing challenges. With a season WHIP of 1.27 and a K/9 of 7.4, Meyer's fantasy reliability remains questionable, particularly in leagues that heavily penalize for earned runs and hits. Fantasy managers should view him as a risky play, dependent on matchups and perhaps more suited for deeper leagues where innings and strikeouts are at a premium.
