Logan Gilbert allowed four earned runs on five hits and one walk while striking out six over six innings in Tuesday's 4-3 loss to the Astros.
Fantasy Impact:
Despite a solid season marked by a commendable 3.33 ERA and a 0.91 WHIP, Gilbert's latest outing slightly tarnishes his otherwise stellar year. His performance against a tough Astros lineup, where he surrendered a few key hits that led to runs, might raise concerns among fantasy managers about his consistency in crucial matchups. However, his strong season-long metrics, such as a 9.4 K/9 and a 5.76 strikeout-to-walk ratio, suggest that this game could be more of an anomaly rather than a trend. Fantasy managers should still view Gilbert as a reliable starting option, but this game serves as a reminder of the volatility that even top pitchers can exhibit.
