Clarke Schmidt took the loss Tuesday, allowing three earned runs on four hits and one walk while striking out seven over 5 1/3 innings against the Orioles.
Fantasy Impact:
Despite a solid strikeout total, Schmidt couldn't avoid the big inning that ultimately cost him and the Yankees the game. This performance slightly tarnishes his otherwise stellar season, where he boasts a 2.55 ERA and a 1.16 WHIP. His ability to maintain a high strikeout rate (9.7 K/9) remains a silver lining for fantasy managers. However, his inconsistency in the win column and susceptibility to occasional rough outings should temper expectations. Owners should continue to monitor his starts closely, especially considering his solid underlying metrics.
