Nestor Cortes Jr. delivered a gem, tossing seven scoreless innings with nine strikeouts against the Rays on Saturday.
Fantasy Impact:
He allowed just six hits and no walks in a game where his offense couldn't back him up, leading to a 2-0 defeat. Despite the loss, Cortes Jr.'s performance was a bright spot, showcasing his ability to control the game and keep hitters off balance. His season ERA now improves to 3.41, and his WHIP to 1.07, reinforcing his status as a reliable fantasy starter. With a solid K/9 rate and an excellent strikeout-to-walk ratio, he remains a must-start in most fantasy formats, especially given his ability to limit walks and consistently rack up strikeouts.
