Eligibility
Colin Rea delivered a solid performance, allowing just one earned run on five hits and one walk while striking out five over 5.1 innings in Thursday's 6-4 win over the Cubs.
Fantasy Impact
Despite the decent outing, Rea didn't factor into the decision, but he did his part to keep the Brewers in contention throughout his time on the mound. His season ERA now sits at a respectable 3.77, with a WHIP of 1.34, reflecting a consistent ability to manage games effectively, though his low strikeout rate (6.3 K/9) continues to limit his upside in fantasy formats that heavily reward strikeouts. Rea's performance today should keep him in the rotation, but fantasy managers should view him as a situational starter rather than a weekly staple.
Colin Rea managed to snag a win in Saturday's 6-3 victory over the Red Sox, allowing two earned runs on three hits and three walks while striking out two over 5. 2/3 innings.
Fantasy Impact
While Rea's performance wasn't exactly a showcase of dominance, his ability to limit damage and secure a win adds a positive note to his season. With a 3.98 ERA and a 1.36 WHIP through 10 appearances, Rea remains a middling fantasy option, primarily useful in deeper leagues or as a streaming candidate against favorable matchups. His modest strikeout rate of 6.1 K/9 continues to cap his upside, making him less appealing for those in need of high strikeout totals.
Colin Rea allowed five runs on eight hits over 4 1/3 innings in a loss on Sunday agains the Astros.
Fantasy Impact
Rea allowed four runs in the opening frame. He was able to settle in, but still couldn't escape the fifth inning. He'll look to bounce back against the Red Sox.
Colin Rea took the loss Monday, allowing three earned runs on six hits and one walk while striking out five over six innings against the Pirates.
Fantasy Impact
This outing nudged his ERA up to 3.45 and WHIP to 1.26 for the season, reflecting a slight dip in his otherwise steady performance. Despite a decent strikeout count, Rea's lower K/9 rate of 6.1 this season suggests limited upside for fantasy strikeouts. Fantasy managers should consider these metrics carefully, as they might hint at volatility in Rea's future starts, potentially impacting his reliability as a fantasy starter.
Colin Rea struggled through 4 2/3 innings, allowing four earned runs on seven hits and one walk while striking out two in the Brewers' narrow 6-5 victory over the Royals on Tuesday.
Fantasy Impact
This outing marked a noticeable dip in performance for Rea. He has a lower-than-average strikeout rate while his WHIP is a bit high (1.28). That limits his fantasy upside despite a nice 3.29 ERA.
