Tyler Phillips Struggles, Phillies Still Triumph Over Marlins
by Jesse Garcia | Phillies Correspondent | Thu, Aug 15th 7:17am EDT
Tyler Phillips allowed five earned runs and struck out four over 4.1 innings in the Phillies' 9-5 victory against the Marlins on Wednesday.
Fantasy Impact:
Despite the team's win, Phillips' performance was less than stellar, surrendering nine hits and a walk. This outing bumps his ERA up to 5.50 and continues to cast doubts on his reliability in fantasy lineups. Given his season-long metrics, including a modest 6.8 K/9 and a FIP of 5.03, Phillips remains a risky play in most formats. His inability to secure holds or saves further limits his fantasy appeal, making him a less desirable option except in deeper leagues or as a streaming candidate in favorable matchups.
