Joey Cantillo's Control Wavers, But Damage Limited
by Chase Davis | Guardians Correspondent | Fri, Sep 20th 8:34am EDT
Joey Cantillo managed to keep the damage to a minimum despite control issues, allowing one earned run on three hits and three walks while striking out six over 4.1 innings in Thursday's 3-2 victory over the Twins.
Fantasy Impact:
Cantillo's performance was a mixed bag; his ability to limit runs was commendable, but high pitch count and walks continue to be a concern. With a season ERA of 4.63 and a WHIP of 1.20, his inconsistency makes him a risky play in fantasy leagues. However, his solid 9.5 K/9 rate keeps him relevant, especially in formats that heavily reward strikeouts. Fantasy managers should consider Cantillo a matchup-dependent option, as his high strikeout capability is often offset by his control issues.
