Houck Stumbles Against Mets, Red Sox Fall 8-3
by Jesse Garcia | Red Sox Correspondent | Wed, Sep 4th 11:19pm EDT
Tanner Houck struggled in Wednesday's 8-3 loss to the Mets, allowing four earned runs on five hits and one walk while striking out seven over five innings.
Fantasy Impact:
This performance slightly tarnishes what has been a solid season for Houck, who entered the game with a commendable 3.12 ERA and 1.17 WHIP. Despite the setback, his ability to still strike out seven batters shows he retains the skill to rack up fantasy points through strikeouts. However, fantasy managers should note the increase in his ERA and WHIP, which could be concerning if it becomes a trend. Houck's overall numbers still support him as a viable fantasy option, but this outing serves as a reminder of the volatility that can come with any starting pitcher.
