Seth Lugo delivered a masterful performance, allowing just one earned run on five hits and zero walks while striking out 12 over eight innings in Sunday's 4-2 victory over the Angels.
Fantasy Impact
This outing not only underscores Lugo's dominance but also significantly bolsters his already impressive season stats. With a 1.81 ERA and a 0.97 WHIP through nine starts, Lugo continues to be a reliable asset for fantasy managers. His high strikeout count in this game is particularly encouraging, given his relatively modest 7.2 K/9 rate this season. Maintaining a 4.00 strikeout-to-walk ratio suggests Lugo could sustain his high-level performance, making him a must-start in all fantasy formats.
