Chris Bassitt shines in Yankees' rout of Blue Jays
by Chris Schommer | Blue Jays Correspondent | Sun, Jun 30th 6:25am EDT
Chris Bassitt delivered a standout performance in Saturday's 9-3 victory over the Yankees, tossing six scoreless innings while allowing just six hits and one walk, and striking out eight.
Fantasy Impact:
This outing was a bright spot in what has been a solid season for Bassitt, lowering his ERA to 3.24 and improving his record to 7-6. His ability to maintain a high strikeout rate (8.4 K/9) while managing a slightly elevated WHIP (1.37) and BABIP (.322) suggests that while he's been somewhat prone to allowing baserunners, he can effectively work out of jams. Fantasy managers should continue to view Bassitt as a reliable starting option, especially given his knack for accumulating strikeouts and logging quality starts.
