Martin Perez shines in Padres' victory over White Sox
by Chris Schommer | Sun, Sep 22nd 7:14am EDT
Martin Perez delivered a strong performance, allowing just one earned run on two hits and three walks while striking out six over 5 1/3 innings in Saturday's 6-2 win against the White Sox.
Fantasy Impact:
This outing was a refreshing display of efficiency from Perez, who has struggled with a slightly elevated ERA and WHIP throughout the season. His ability to limit hits and rack up strikeouts in this game could hint at a potential upswing as he tries to improve his 4.25 ERA and 1.45 WHIP. However, fantasy managers should remain cautious, as his season-long metrics like a 7.1 K/9 and a 4.94 FIP suggest that inconsistency may still be an issue. This performance, though positive, should be viewed as a step in the right direction rather than a complete turnaround.
