Cantillo Crumbles Against Yankees
by Jesse Garcia | Guardians Correspondent | Wed, Aug 21st 10:14pm EDT
Joey Cantillo struggled mightily, allowing seven earned runs on six hits and three walks while striking out five over four innings in Wednesday's 8-1 loss to the Yankees.
Fantasy Impact:
This performance marks another rough outing for Cantillo, who has now failed to secure a win in his first four starts of the season, pushing his ERA to an unsettling 8.47. His WHIP has ballooned to 1.76, and with a strikeout rate of only 7.41 per nine innings, his ability to control games and limit damage seems to be waning. Fantasy managers should be wary of relying on Cantillo in their lineups, as his current form and underlying metrics suggest continued struggles. His high FIP indicates that his struggles are not solely due to bad luck, and his low strikeout-to-walk ratio only compounds the issue.
