Fantasy Impact

This performance was a bright spot in what has been a challenging season for Houser, who entered the game with a bloated 5.55 ERA and a 1.53 WHIP. His outing today, contributing to a decisive victory, could hint at a turning point, though his season-long metrics suggest caution. Fantasy managers should keep an eye on whether this outing marks a real improvement in his form or just a good day at the office. His role in high-leverage situations, evidenced by his save today, adds some potential value, but his overall effectiveness remains a question mark.

Adrian Houser will return to the bullpen for the Mets.

Houser will not make another start, as David Peterson will join the rotation on Wednesday. The veteran has a 7.88 ERA and a 1.78 WHIP in nine games this season.

Mets manager Carlos Mendoza said The Mets aren't committing to another start for Adrian Houser, but they haven't made any decisions yet.

Fantasy Impact
