Gavin Williams Stumbles in Loss to Royals
by Emily Maingi | Guardians Correspondent | Wed, Aug 28th 11:40am EDT
Gavin Williams allowed two earned runs on three hits and two walks while striking out six over five innings in Tuesday's 6-1 loss to the Royals.
Fantasy Impact:
Despite a solid strikeout rate, Williams continues to struggle with his overall effectiveness, as evidenced by his season ERA now teetering just below 5.00. His WHIP and BABIP suggest that he's been somewhat unlucky, but not enough to ignore the underlying issues. Fantasy managers should view Williams as a risky play, primarily valuable for his strikeout potential, but a liability in ERA and WHIP. His high FIP indicates some positive regression may be on the horizon, but it's a gamble whether that will materialize soon enough to impact fantasy rosters positively this season.
