Jeffrey Springs Stumbles in Short Outing Against A's
by Chase Davis | Rays Correspondent | Fri, Aug 23rd 8:33am EDT
Jeffrey Springs struggled in Thursday's matchup, allowing three earned runs on seven hits and two walks while striking out three over just 3.1 innings in the Rays' 3-1 loss to the Athletics.
Fantasy Impact:
This performance continues a concerning trend for Springs, who now sports a 4.50 ERA and a 1.64 WHIP through five starts this season. His high BABIP of .385 suggests some bad luck, but the consistent contact allowed is troubling for fantasy managers relying on him for strikeouts and quality starts. While his 9.8 K/9 remains attractive, the elevated WHIP and ERA are dampening his overall fantasy value. Managers should consider Springs a risky play until he shows signs of deeper outings and better command.
