by Jesse Garcia | Mariners Correspondent | Wed, Sep 11th 8:07am EDT
George Kirby struggled in Tuesday's 7-3 loss to the Padres, allowing five earned runs on seven hits and one walk while striking out four over five innings.
Fantasy Impact:
This performance marks a slight deviation from his solid season, where he's maintained a 3.77 ERA and 1.12 WHIP across 30 starts. Despite the rough outing, Kirby's underlying metrics, including a 3.48 FIP and an excellent 7.55 strikeout-to-walk ratio, suggest he remains a reliable option in fantasy rotations. His ability to limit walks and maintain a decent strikeout rate should help him bounce back in future starts, though fantasy managers might be slightly cautious given this recent bump in the road.
