Kyle Freeland

Kyle Freeland struggled through 4.1 innings, allowing four earned runs on eight hits and one walk while striking out four in Thursday's 10-8 victory over the Cardinals.

Fantasy Impact

Despite the Rockies pulling off a win, Freeland's outing was less than stellar, continuing a trend reflected in his elevated 5.08 season ERA and 1.39 WHIP. His performance this season, characterized by a modest 6.8 K/9 and a high 4.91 FIP, suggests ongoing challenges in maintaining fantasy relevance. Given these metrics, fantasy managers should view Freeland as a risky play, primarily in favorable matchups or as a streaming option, rather than a staple in their rotation.

Kyle Freeland endured another rough outing, allowing four earned runs on seven hits over six innings in Friday's 6-4 loss to the Dodgers.

Fantasy Impact

He did not issue any walks and struck out two. This performance continues a concerning trend for Freeland, whose season ERA now sits at an inflated 4.95. With a WHIP of 1.37 and a low strikeout rate of 6.7 K/9, his fantasy relevance remains limited primarily to deeper leagues or those that heavily favor innings pitched. The lack of strikeouts and high ERA significantly caps his upside, making him a risky play in most formats. His consistent issues with allowing hits and runs are a red flag for fantasy managers looking for reliable starting options.

Kyle Freeland delivered a quality start, allowing three earned runs on seven hits and one walk while striking out three over seven innings in Saturday's 6-5 victory over the Cubs.

Fantasy Impact

Despite a decent outing, Freeland's performance this season continues to be a mixed bag for fantasy managers. With a 4.89 ERA and a 1.38 WHIP over 19 starts, he remains a risky play, especially in leagues that heavily penalize earned runs. His low strikeout rate of 6.9 K/9 limits his upside in categories that reward strikeouts. However, his ability to eat innings and post a reasonable strikeout-to-walk ratio might offer some value in deeper leagues or as a streaming option in favorable matchups.

Kyle Freeland allowed one (unearned) run on three hits across six innings on Sunday against the Brewers.

Freeland added four strikeouts on the afternoon. He'll look to carry the momentum into his next start against the Cubs.

Kyle Freeland took the loss in a 3-0 defeat to the Braves on Tuesday. He allowed one earned run on six hits and zero walks while striking out five over five innings.

Fantasy Impact

Despite a decent performance in minimizing walks and keeping his team in the game, Freeland's season struggles continue to overshadow his outings. With a 5.30 ERA and a 1.46 WHIP over 17 starts, his inconsistency remains a significant concern for fantasy managers. His ability to maintain a solid strikeout-to-walk ratio offers some upside, but the high ERA and WHIP make him a risky play in most fantasy formats. His performance today does little to boost confidence in his rest-of-season outlook.
