Craig Kimbrel delivered a dominant performance, striking out three and walking one in a scoreless inning to secure the save as the Orioles topped the Guardians 4-2.

Fantasy Impact:

This outing showcased Kimbrel's ability to shut down opponents when it counts, reinforcing his role as a reliable closer. With a season ERA now standing at an impressive 2.54 and a WHIP under one, Kimbrel continues to be a vital asset for fantasy teams needing saves and strikeouts. His high strikeout rate (13.3 K/9) and solid control (3.50 K/BB ratio) suggest that despite the occasional walk, he remains a top-tier option in all formats. Fantasy managers should keep riding the wave with Kimbrel, as his performances tend to tilt the scales in categories like saves and strikeouts.
