Dylan Cease Stumbles as Padres Fall to Mets
by Chase Davis | Padres Correspondent | Fri, Aug 23rd 8:16am EDT
Dylan Cease took the loss Thursday, yielding two earned runs on nine hits and one walk while striking out seven over 6.1 innings against the Mets.
Fantasy Impact:
Despite the loss, Cease's performance was somewhat solid, managing to keep his ERA and WHIP in respectable ranges. His season-long metrics, including a 3.43 ERA and a 1.05 WHIP, continue to make him a valuable asset in fantasy leagues, particularly with his high strikeout rate of 11.2 K/9. However, the frequency of hits in this outing is a slight concern, potentially indicating some vulnerability. Fantasy managers should still view Cease as a strong starting option, but it's worth monitoring if hit issues persist in his subsequent starts.
