by Emily Maingi | Padres Correspondent | Wed, Sep 18th 11:38am EDT
Michael King delivered a solid performance, allowing two earned runs on five hits and one walk while striking out seven over seven innings in Tuesday's 4-3 loss to the Astros.
Fantasy Impact:
Despite the Padres' defeat, King's outing was a testament to his consistency this season, maintaining a strong ERA and WHIP. His ability to strike out batters at a high rate, evidenced by his 10.6 K/9, continues to make him a valuable asset in fantasy leagues. Although he didn't factor into the decision, his season metrics, including a commendable 3.41 FIP and a stable 3.25 strikeout-to-walk ratio, suggest he should remain a reliable option for fantasy managers seeking quality starts and strikeouts.
