Ben Lively stumbles, Guardians fall to Astros 4-3

Ben Lively struggled to find his rhythm in Saturday's 4-3 loss to the Astros.
Fantasy Impact:
He allowed two earned runs on five hits and four walks while striking out four over four innings. This performance slightly tarnishes what has been a solid season for Lively, who now sports a 3.81 ERA and a 1.25 WHIP through 29 starts. His inability to go deep into games recently, coupled with a modest strikeout rate of 7.0 K/9, might raise concerns for fantasy managers relying on him for strikeouts and wins. However, his overall stability this season should keep him in fantasy rotations, albeit with tempered expectations.
