Charlie Morton's Quality Start Wasted in Tough Loss
by Matthew Adam | Braves Correspondent | Tue, Sep 10th 5:58am EDT
Charlie Morton delivered a solid performance but took the loss in Monday's 1-0 defeat against the Reds.
Fantasy Impact:
He allowed just one earned run on six hits and two walks while striking out seven over 6.2 innings. Despite this strong outing, Morton's season has been a mixed bag with a 4.11 ERA and a 1.32 WHIP across 27 starts. His 9.4 K/9 continues to be a bright spot, offering valuable strikeouts for fantasy managers, but his elevated 4.52 FIP suggests some underlying struggles. Given his consistent ability to rack up strikeouts and the quality starts he's capable of, Morton remains a viable fantasy option, though his win potential may be hampered by the Braves' inconsistent run support, as evidenced in this game.
