Craig Kimbrel notched another save despite a shaky outing against the Rangers.

Fantasy Impact:

Craig Kimbrel allowed no hits but walked two batters in a scoreless inning to secure the Orioles' 6-5 victory. While Kimbrel's ability to escape jams without surrendering runs was on display, the two walks he issued are a reminder of the occasional control issues that can haunt him. Despite this, his season stats, including a solid 2.37 ERA and a 0.99 WHIP, along with an impressive 13.1 K/9, suggest he remains a reliable option for saves in fantasy leagues. However, fantasy managers should be cautious of his walk rates, which could undermine his otherwise stellar contributions if they become a consistent issue.
