Mitchell Parker Stumbles Against Yankees
by Matthew Adam | Nationals Correspondent | Tue, Aug 27th 6:08am EDT
Mitchell Parker took the loss Monday, allowing two earned runs on five hits and two walks while striking out five over four innings against the Yankees.
Fantasy Impact:
This performance slightly worsens his already middling season stats, nudging his ERA up to 4.26 and his WHIP to 1.26. Despite a respectable strikeout-to-walk ratio of 3.21 and a BABIP of .293, Parker's inability to pitch deep into games and his elevated 4.11 FIP suggest ongoing volatility. Fantasy managers should view him as a risky play, primarily useful in deeper leagues or as a streaming option against less formidable lineups. His strikeout rate of 7.7 K/9 continues to offer some upside, but consistency remains elusive for the Nationals' left-hander.
