Chris Bassitt stumbles, Jays edge Angels 5-4

Chris Bassitt had a rough outing on Friday, allowing four earned runs on four hits and two walks while striking out six over six innings in the Angels' 5-4 loss to the Blue Jays.
Fantasy Impact:
This performance slightly mirrors his season-long struggles, as evidenced by his elevated 4.41 ERA and 1.42 WHIP. Despite a decent strikeout rate of 8.7 K/9, his FIP of 4.17 and high BABIP of .330 suggest that he has been somewhat unlucky, yet also prone to mistakes. Fantasy managers should be cautious; while he can rack up strikeouts, his inconsistency in run prevention makes him a risky play in all but the deepest of leagues.
