Cole Ragans roughed up in Royals' loss to Angels
by Chris Schommer | Royals Correspondent | Sun, May 12th 9:21am EDT
Cole Ragans endured a challenging outing on Saturday, surrendering seven earned runs on eight hits and one walk while striking out three over 6 1/3 innings in the Royals' 9-3 defeat to the Angels.
Fantasy Impact:
This performance marks a significant deviation from his otherwise solid season, where he boasted a 4.22 ERA and 1.29 WHIP across nine starts. Despite his high strikeout rate of 10.5 K/9 and a strong 3.56 strikeout-to-walk ratio, Ragans's susceptibility to hits this game, evidenced by a .339 BABIP, inflated his ERA and could raise concerns about his consistency. Fantasy managers should monitor his next few starts closely to determine if adjustments can curb the hits and manage the damage to maintain his fantasy relevance.
