Fantasy Impact

This outing not only secured his second win of the season but also underscored his growing reliability in fantasy lineups. With a season ERA now impressively low at 1.56 and a WHIP of 1.07, Crawford is making a case for himself as more than just a streaming option. His consistent strikeout ability, evidenced by a 8.93 K/9 rate, combined with a solid 3.08 strikeout-to-walk ratio, suggests that maintaining him in fantasy rotations could pay off, especially if he continues to mitigate damage and control the game as he did against the Giants.

Kutter Crawford allowed three earned runs on ten hits and zero walks while striking out four over six innings in Friday's 7-1 loss to the Cubs.

Fantasy Impact

Despite this rough outing, Crawford's season numbers remain impressive, with a 1.35 ERA and a 1.11 WHIP through six starts. His high BABIP of .286 in this game suggests some bad luck, possibly inflating the number of hits allowed. However, his solid strikeout-to-walk ratio and FIP indicate underlying skills that could help him bounce back in future outings. Fantasy managers should consider this performance a minor blip rather than a trend, keeping faith in Crawford's ability to anchor their pitching staff.

Fantasy Impact

This outing continues a strong start to the 2024 season for Crawford, allowing one run or less in each of his five starts on the mound for the Red Sox. His ability to maintain a high strikeout rate (9.9 K/9) while keeping the ball in the park and limiting hard contact (0.235 BABIP) makes him a valuable asset in fantasy leagues. Given his consistent performance and excellent underlying metrics like a 2.38 FIP, Crawford should be considered a reliable starting option in all fantasy formats. His continued success is particularly noteworthy for those in leagues that value strikeouts and ERA.

Kutter Crawford delivered a standout performance, allowing no earned runs and just two hits while striking out six over 5.2 innings in Monday's 6-0 loss to the Guardians.

Fantasy Impact

Despite his strong outing, Crawford's efforts went unrewarded as the Red Sox offense couldn't muster any support. This game further solidifies Crawford's role as a reliable starter in fantasy lineups, especially given his impressive season stats including a 0.42 ERA and a 0.80 WHIP. His ability to suppress runs and maintain a high strikeout rate makes him a valuable asset, though his win potential may be hampered by the team's offensive struggles. Fantasy managers should continue to deploy him with confidence, but temper expectations for wins.
