Landon Knack struggled in Tuesday's 4-2 loss to the Padres, allowing four earned runs on five hits and one walk while striking out four over four innings.
Fantasy Impact
This outing marks a slight deviation from his generally solid season, where he has maintained a respectable 3.74 ERA and 1.09 WHIP across 12 starts. Despite the rough game, Knack's season-long metrics, like his 9.0 K/9 and 3.61 strikeout-to-walk ratio, suggest he can bounce back. However, his elevated 4.83 FIP indicates potential underlying issues that could affect his reliability as a fantasy option. Fantasy managers should monitor his next start closely for signs of either recovery or further regression.
Landon Knack delivered a strong performance, allowing no earned runs on just two hits and two walks while striking out seven over five innings in Wednesday's 8-4 victory over the Marlins.
Fantasy Impact
This outing was a bright spot in what has been a solid season for Knack, who now boasts a 3.39 ERA and a 1.07 WHIP through 12 starts. His ability to maintain a high strikeout rate (9.0 K/9) while keeping the walks in check contributes positively to his fantasy value. Despite a somewhat inflated FIP (4.80) suggesting potential regression, his low BABIP (.228) indicates that some luck has been involved in his performances. Fantasy managers should continue to view Knack as a viable starting option, especially in matchups against weaker offenses.
Landon Knack struggled mightily in Friday's 6-2 loss to the Braves, allowing five earned runs on seven hits and two walks while striking out two over just two innings.
Fantasy Impact
This performance was a stark departure from his otherwise solid season, where he boasts a 3.70 ERA and a 1.09 WHIP through 10 starts. The outing inflated his ERA and exposed some vulnerabilities, particularly in managing hits and walks in short spans. Given this blip, fantasy managers should be cautious but not overly reactionary. Knack's season-long metrics like a strong strikeout-to-walk ratio and a low BABIP suggest he might bounce back, but this game could hint at underlying issues that need addressing in his approach or mechanics.
Landon Knack delivered a solid performance but couldn't secure a win, allowing two earned runs on three hits and one walk while striking out eight over six innings in Friday's 3-1 loss to the Guardians.
Fantasy Impact
Despite the loss, Knack's outing was a display of efficiency and control, maintaining a strong season with a 3.00 ERA and a 0.96 WHIP. His ability to strike out batters at a high rate, evidenced by an 8.7 K/9, continues to make him a valuable asset in fantasy leagues, especially given his low WHIP and decent ERA. However, his 4.63 FIP suggests some underlying concerns that could affect his performance stability moving forward. Fantasy managers should keep an eye on his ability to sustain these metrics against tougher lineups.
The Dodgers have recalled Landon Knack from Triple-A Oklahoma City.
Fantasy Impact
