Jared Jones strikes out seven in no-decision

Jared Jones racked up seven strikeouts over 4 1/3 innings, allowing two earned runs on five hits and one walk in Friday's 4-2 win over the Yankees.
Fantasy Impact:
Despite a solid strikeout performance, Jones couldn't pitch deep into the game, which has been a recurring theme this season. His season stats, including a 4.14 ERA and a 1.19 WHIP, reflect an inconsistent pitcher with decent control and the ability to miss bats, as evidenced by his 9.8 K/9 rate. However, his inability to work deeper into games limits his win potential and can strain fantasy rosters relying on him for more innings and quality starts. Moving forward, Jones remains a viable fantasy option primarily for his strikeout upside, but managers should temper expectations.
