Martin Perez struggles, Padres still dominate Rays
by Chris Schommer | Sat, Aug 31st 9:05am EDT
Martin Perez had a rough outing in Friday's 13-5 victory over the Rays.
Fantasy Impact:
He allowed four earned runs on seven hits and three walks while striking out four over five innings. Despite the win, Perez's performance was less than stellar, continuing a concerning trend seen throughout the season. With a ballooning ERA of 4.71 and a WHIP of 1.53, his reliability as a fantasy starter is increasingly questionable. Fantasy managers should be wary of his high ERA and WHIP, which suggest potential for more disappointing outings, despite his ability to secure occasional wins. His strikeout rate remains mediocre, further limiting his appeal in leagues that reward high strikeout totals.
