Frankie Montas

Fantasy Impact

He allowed three earned runs on four hits and three walks while striking out just one over five innings. This performance underscores a troubling trend for Montas, whose season ERA now sits at 4.37 with a WHIP of 1.37. His strikeout rate remains low at 6.4 K/9, and his FIP at 5.60 suggests that his struggles are not solely due to bad luck. Fantasy managers should be cautious, as his reduced strikeout ability and high FIP indicate potential ongoing issues that could hurt his value in all formats.
