Hunter Brown Stumbles Against Athletics
by Jesse Garcia | Astros Correspondent | Thu, Sep 12th 8:13am EDT
Hunter Brown endured a rough outing, allowing five earned runs on nine hits and one walk while striking out seven over five innings in Wednesday's 5-4 loss to the Athletics.
Fantasy Impact:
This performance was a bit of a setback for Brown, whose ERA and WHIP took a hit, rising to a 3.59 mark. Despite this, his season-long metrics, including a solid 9.6 K/9 and a 3.69 FIP, suggest that he remains a valuable asset in fantasy rotations. Fantasy managers should consider this start a blip rather than a trend, given his overall strong performance this season. However, his susceptibility to hits this game could be a point of concern if it becomes a recurring issue.
