Emerson Hancock's mixed outing ends in Mariners' favor

Emerson Hancock delivered a middling performance, allowing three earned runs on six hits and one walk while striking out five over five innings in Friday's 5-4 victory over the Rangers.

Fantasy Impact:

This outing was emblematic of Hancock's season struggles, characterized by a high ERA of 4.83 and a modest strikeout rate of 5.9 K/9. Despite escaping with a no-decision, his inability to pitch deeper into games and a concerning 5.52 FIP suggest limited upside for fantasy managers. Hancock's WHIP of 1.33 further underscores his inconsistency in controlling the base paths, making him a risky play in all but the deepest of fantasy leagues.
