Rhett Lowder shines, Reds' bats fall silent
by Chris Schommer | Reds Correspondent | Sun, Sep 29th 9:29am EDT
Rhett Lowder delivered a strong performance, allowing zero earned runs on three hits and three walks while striking out one over five innings in Saturday's 3-0 loss to the Cubs.
Fantasy Impact:
Despite his commendable effort, Lowder was left without a decision, a recurring theme that might frustrate fantasy managers given his solid 1.17 ERA and 1.27 WHIP through six starts. His low strikeout rate (6.5 K/9) continues to be a concern for those needing whiffs, but his ability to suppress runs makes him a viable option in deeper leagues or as a streaming candidate in favorable matchups. However, his lack of run support and win potential on the Reds could limit his overall fantasy impact.
