Michael King's Effort Wasted in Padres' Loss
by Chase Davis | Padres Correspondent | Fri, Aug 30th 8:50am EDT
Michael King endured a tough outing in Thursday's 4-1 loss to the Cardinals, allowing no earned runs but six hits and three walks over 4.1 innings while striking out three.
Fantasy Impact:
Despite delivering a performance that kept earned runs off the board, King's inability to go deeper into the game likely frustrated fantasy managers, especially given the high pitch count and lack of run support. His season-long metrics, including a solid 3.05 ERA and a 10.6 K/9, suggest he remains a valuable asset in fantasy rotations. However, his latest start underscores potential concerns about his efficiency and the Padres' inconsistent offense impacting his win potential. Moving forward, King's fantasy value is stable, but managers might temper expectations for wins.
