Nick Martinez endured a challenging outing in Friday's 7-1 loss to the Royals.
Fantasy Impact:
He allowed three earned runs on eight hits and zero walks while striking out four over six innings. Despite this rough start, Martinez's season metrics remain solid, with a 3.25 ERA and a 1.05 WHIP through eight starts. His ability to limit walks, evidenced by a stellar strikeout-to-walk ratio, continues to be a strong point. However, his performance against the Royals might raise concerns about his consistency, especially in matchups against high-contact teams. Fantasy managers should monitor his next few outings closely but keep him in rotation given his overall strong performance this season.
