Mitch Spence stumbles in loss to Royals
by Chris Schommer | Athletics Correspondent | Sat, May 18th 9:38am EDT
Mitch Spence allowed one earned run over 4 2/3 innings while striking out four in Friday's 6-2 loss to the Royals.
Fantasy Impact:
Despite a relatively solid performance, Spence's efforts weren't enough to steer the Athletics to victory as the team's offense lagged. His season ERA slightly increased to 3.90, maintaining a decent WHIP of 1.13. While his K/9 sits at a modest 7.8, fantasy managers should note his stable 3.29 FIP and 3.25 strikeout-to-walk ratio, indicating potential for better outcomes. However, given the Athletics' inconsistent support and his role, Spence remains a risky play in most fantasy formats, best suited for deeper leagues or as a streaming option when matchups are favorable.
