Yu Darvish Stumbles, Padres Still Triumph

by Jesse Garcia | Padres Correspondent | Thu, Sep 5th 7:42am EDT

Yu Darvish had a rough outing, allowing three earned runs on four hits and two walks while striking out four over just 2.2 innings in Wednesday's narrow 6-5 victory over the Tigers.

Fantasy Impact:

This performance was a blip in what has been a solid season for Darvish, who entered the game with a commendable 3.51 ERA and a 1.12 WHIP. His early exit after throwing only 63 pitches was likely a strategic move to manage his workload or a response to his ineffectiveness. Despite this setback, his season-long metrics, including a strong strikeout-to-walk ratio and a low BABIP, suggest he should remain a reliable option in fantasy rotations. However, fantasy managers should monitor his next few starts closely for any signs of lingering issues or adjustments.
