Matt Manning delivered a lackluster performance, allowing three earned runs on nine hits and one walk while striking out five over 5.2 innings in Monday's 6-5 victory over the Marlins.

Fantasy Impact

Despite the high number of hits allowed, Manning managed to escape with a no-decision, thanks to his offense rallying to secure the win. This outing nudged his ERA slightly upward to 4.37 and his WHIP to 1.32 for the season. His performance today is reflective of a troubling trend of allowing too many hits, which could be a concern for fantasy managers relying on him for better ratios. While his strikeout rate remains decent, his inability to limit base runners caps his fantasy upside.

The Tigers optioned Matt Manning to Triple-A Toledo.

Fantasy Impact

Manning was called up as the 27th man for Tuesday's doubleheader against the Cardinals. He allowed four runs across 4 2/3 innings with seven strikeouts in his appearance.

Matt Manning endured a rough outing in Saturday's 4-1 loss to the Twins.

Fantasy Impact

He allowed four earned runs on five hits and two walks while striking out seven over 6 2/3 innings. The right-hander continues to struggle with control on the mound, recording at least two walks in each of his two starts on the mound for the Tigers. The right-hander continues to flash a dynamic arsenal, but will likely head back down to Triple-A Toledo until the 26-year-old is needed as part of a loaded Detroit pitching staff throughout their system.
