Slade Cecconi had a rocky outing, allowing three earned runs on four hits and two walks while striking out three over four innings in Wednesday's 7-5 win over the Braves.
Fantasy Impact
Despite the D-backs pulling off a victory, Cecconi's performance did little to reassure fantasy managers. His ERA for the season now sits uncomfortably high at 6.14, compounded by a middling WHIP of 1.32. While his strikeout numbers aren't abysmal, they're not enough to offset the damage from his frequent runs allowed. Cecconi's role in fantasy rosters should be considered precarious at best, suitable only for the deepest of leagues or as a speculative play in favorable matchups.
Slade Cecconi had a rough outing in Friday's 10-8 loss to the Padres.
Fantasy Impact
He allowed five earned runs on eight hits and one walk while striking out only two over 4 2/3 innings. This performance continues a troubling trend for Cecconi, whose season ERA has now ballooned to 6.10, with a WHIP of 1.31 across 12 starts. Despite a decent strikeout-to-walk ratio of 4.17, his inability to limit hits and runs severely limits his fantasy appeal. With a high ERA and a FIP of 4.89 indicating underlying struggles, Cecconi remains a risky play in all but the deepest of fantasy leagues. His current form suggests little upside for improvement, making him a potential drop candidate if better pitching options are available on waivers.
