Ryan Pepiot Strikes Out Nine In Monday’s Loss
6 months agoTampa Bay Rays starter Ryan Pepiot surrendered four runs on nine hits across six innings during Monday's 5-2 loss against the Baltimore Orioles. He did not issue a walk and struck out nine batters. The main damage against Pepiot was two solo home runs, but he continued to generate whiffs at a high rate. The 26-year-old's 4.17 ERA is a far cry from his 2.88 xERA, but his 1.01 WHIP and 68:16 K:BB help tell the full story. Pepiot has pitched quite well in 2024 and can be a useful fantasy asset for the rest of the season, although he has another tough matchup on deck against the Atlanta Braves this weekend.
