Griffin Canning's struggles continue in Angels' loss

Griffin Canning delivered a mediocre outing in Saturday's high-scoring affair against the Rangers, allowing two earned runs on four hits and two walks while striking out four over five innings.
Fantasy Impact:
Despite not factoring into the decision in the Angels' 9-8 loss, Canning's performance did little to reassure fantasy managers. His season-long struggles are reflected in a bloated 5.19 ERA and a WHIP of 1.40, compounded by a low strikeout rate of 6.8 K/9. Given these metrics and his unimpressive 6-13 record, Canning remains a risky play in all but the deepest of fantasy leagues. His inability to limit runs or miss bats consistently makes him a liability, and managers should consider other options with more upside or stability.
