Jared Jones dazzles in shutout performance against Rockies

by Chris Schommer | Pirates Correspondent | Sun, May 5th 8:31am EDT

Jared Jones delivered a masterclass on the mound Saturday, tossing seven scoreless innings while allowing just one hit and striking out ten against the Rockies.

Fantasy Impact:

This gem of a performance helped the Pirates edge out a 1-0 victory. Jones's dominance in this outing further cements his status as a rising star in fantasy circles, especially given his impressive season stats that include a 2.63 ERA and a 0.78 WHIP. His ability to maintain a high strikeout rate (11.4 K/9) and minimize walks contributes to a stellar 10.40 strikeout-to-walk ratio, making him a must-start in all formats. Fantasy managers should continue to ride his hot streak, as his low BABIP (.225) suggests some luck, but his skill indicators like FIP (3.38) confirm his effectiveness is no fluke.
