Cristopher Sanchez Stumbles Slightly in Tight Loss
by Chase Davis | Phillies Correspondent | Fri, Aug 23rd 8:21am EDT
Cristopher Sanchez took the loss Thursday, yielding three earned runs on nine hits and one walk while striking out eight over six innings against the Braves.
Fantasy Impact:
Despite the loss, Sanchez's performance was decent, maintaining a solid strikeout rate which aligns with his season average. His ERA slightly increased to 3.51, but his ability to limit walks and maintain a strong strikeout-to-walk ratio continues to make him a reliable option in fantasy leagues. The slight uptick in hits allowed in this game could be attributed to a somewhat inflated BABIP, which stands at .321 for the season. Fantasy managers should continue to view Sanchez as a steady starting option, especially in leagues that value strikeouts and WHIP.
