Zach Eflin Dominates Red Sox, Orioles Cruise to Victory
by Chase Davis | Orioles Correspondent | Fri, Aug 16th 8:21am EDT
Zach Eflin turned in a strong performance, allowing just one earned run on five hits and zero walks while striking out eight over six innings in Thursday's 5-1 win over the Red Sox.
Fantasy Impact:
This outing continues a solid season for Eflin, who now boasts a 3.72 ERA and a 1.14 WHIP through 24 starts. His ability to maintain a high strikeout-to-walk ratio (7.47) and a decent K/9 rate (7.4) makes him a reliable option in fantasy rotations, especially in leagues that value WHIP and ERA. While his FIP suggests some sustainability, his relatively low BABIP (.294) might indicate some regression could occur. Nonetheless, Eflin's consistent performance should keep him rostered in most formats.
