Martin Perez Shines, Padres Fall Short
by Chase Davis | Fri, Sep 6th 8:24am EDT
Martin Perez delivered a strong performance pitching 6.1 innings, allowing zero earned runs on five hits and one walk while striking out five in Thursday's 4-3 loss to the Tigers.
Fantasy Impact:
Despite the solid outing, Perez's season has been less than stellar, marked by a 4.46 ERA and a 1.50 WHIP over 23 starts. His performance against Detroit showcased his potential to deliver quality starts, yet his season-long inconsistencies and high WHIP continue to make him a risky play in fantasy lineups. Fantasy managers should view him as a matchup-dependent option, considering his struggles with maintaining a lower ERA and WHIP throughout the season.
