Frankie Montas Strikes Out 10, But Brewers Fall
by Emily Maingi | Brewers Correspondent | Wed, Sep 18th 11:45am EDT
Frankie Montas racked up 10 strikeouts but took the loss in Tuesday's 5-1 defeat to the Phillies. He allowed three earned runs on six hits and two walks over 5.2 innings.
Fantasy Impact:
Despite a solid strikeout performance, Montas's season has been marred by inconsistency, as evidenced by his 4.50 ERA and 1.34 WHIP through 28 starts. His high strikeout rate remains appealing, but the elevated ERA and WHIP make him a risky play in fantasy lineups. Montas's ability to miss bats is undeniable, yet his overall effectiveness is diminished by his tendency to allow too many base runners and runs. Fantasy managers should consider him a matchup-dependent option moving forward.
