Joey Cantillo struggles in short outing against Astros
by Chris Schommer | Guardians Correspondent | Sat, Sep 28th 7:10am EDT
Joey Cantillo took the loss Friday, yielding three earned runs on six hits and two walks while striking out seven over 3 2/3 innings against the Astros.
Fantasy Impact:
This performance was a bit of a setback for Cantillo, who has shown some promise this season with a solid 10.2 K/9 and a decent 2.93 strikeout-to-walk ratio. However, his ERA ballooned to 4.89, reflecting ongoing struggles with run prevention. The high strikeout numbers are appealing for fantasy managers, but his inability to pitch deep into games and tendency to give up runs are concerning. Owners should consider Cantillo a risky play, best suited for matchups against weaker lineups or as a streaming option.
