Paul Skenes dominates Cubs with no-hit bid

Paul Skenes delivered a masterful performance in Friday's 9-3 victory over the Cubs, tossing six no-hit innings while striking out 11 and walking just one.

Fantasy Impact:

This outing not only secured his first career win but also showcased his dominant strikeout ability, maintaining an elite 16.2 K/9 rate. With a 2.70 ERA and a 0.90 WHIP through his initial starts, Skenes is quickly proving to be a high-upside asset in fantasy leagues. His ability to suppress hits and maintain a high strikeout-to-walk ratio should keep him relevant in all formats, especially if he continues to perform at this level. Fantasy managers would be wise to keep a close eye on Skenes, as his early-season performances suggest he could be one of the breakout stars of the year.
