Jack Leiter's rough season continues despite team win

Jack Leiter delivered a mixed outing in the Rangers' 6-4 victory over the Angels on Saturday.
Fantasy Impact:
He allowed three earned runs on just two hits and two walks while striking out six over five innings. Despite not factoring into the decision, Leiter's performance did little to reassure fantasy managers given his season-long struggles, which include a bloated 10.41 ERA and a 1.84 WHIP over six starts. His high BABIP of .363 suggests some bad luck, but the underlying metrics, including a poor 5.53 FIP and a low 7.3 K/9, indicate that significant improvements are needed. Fantasy managers should continue to view Leiter with caution, as his current form does not inspire confidence for reliable starts.
