Patrick Corbin Stumbles Again in Nationals' Narrow Defeat
by Chase Davis | Nationals Correspondent | Fri, Sep 20th 8:48am EDT
Patrick Corbin struggled through just 4.1 innings, allowing five earned runs on eight hits and one walk while striking out four in Thursday's 7-6 loss to the Cubs.
Fantasy Impact:
This outing is yet another blot on Corbin's already tarnished season record, which now includes a bloated 5.58 ERA and a 1.51 WHIP over 31 starts. His inability to limit hits and runs has been a recurring theme, reflected in a high .340 BABIP and a modest 7.2 K/9 rate. Given these metrics and his consistent underperformance, Corbin's fantasy relevance remains low, and he should be considered a risky play in all but the deepest of leagues. His high ERA and WHIP are particularly damaging in categories leagues, making him a liability more often than not.
