Ryan Feltner falters, Rockies rally to win

by Chris Schommer | Rockies Correspondent | Sun, Sep 1st 9:54am EDT

Ryan Feltner struggled through 4 2/3 innings, allowing five earned runs on six hits and one walk while striking out six in Saturday's 7-5 victory over the Orioles.

Fantasy Impact:

Despite the Rockies' win, Feltner's performance did little to inspire confidence among fantasy managers. His season-long ERA now sits at an inflated 5.11, with a WHIP of 1.43, reflecting ongoing struggles with consistency and command. Given these metrics and his high ERA, Feltner remains a risky play in all but the deepest of fantasy leagues. His strikeout rate of 7.8 K/9 is mediocre and doesn't offset the damage done by his frequent runs allowed. Fantasy managers should consider other options unless Feltner shows significant improvement in his control and ability to limit hard contact.
