Bailey Falter Steadies Ship in Pirates' Victory
by Chase Davis | Pirates Correspondent | Fri, Sep 6th 8:46am EDT
Bailey Falter earned a win, allowing three earned runs on seven hits and two walks while striking out three over five innings in Thursday's 9-4 win over the Nationals.
Fantasy Impact:
This performance was a typical outing for Falter, who has maintained a middling ERA of 4.45 and WHIP of 1.31 throughout the season. His modest strikeout rate of 6.2 K/9 and FIP of 4.30 suggest limited upside for fantasy managers seeking dominant pitching stats. However, his ability to secure wins, now totaling seven on the season, keeps him relevant in formats where victories are highly valued. Moving forward, Falter should be considered a back-end rotation option, primarily useful in deeper leagues or as a streaming candidate when matchups are favorable.
