Gore Struggles in Short Outing Against Braves
by Jesse Garcia | Nationals Correspondent | Wed, Sep 11th 7:49am EDT
MacKenzie Gore endured a rough start, allowing two earned runs on six hits and three walks while striking out three over just 3.2 innings in Tuesday's 12-0 loss to the Braves.
Fantasy Impact:
This performance further inflates his already elevated ERA and WHIP, which now sit at 4.34 and 1.52 respectively for the season. Despite a decent strikeout rate of 9.7 K/9, Gore's high BABIP of .359 suggests he's been somewhat unlucky, yet his inability to limit baserunners consistently is a glaring issue. His FIP at 3.75 indicates a slightly better underlying performance than his ERA suggests, but fantasy managers should remain cautious. Gore's volatility makes him a risky play in all but the deepest of leagues.
