Alvarado Seals the Deal Against Cubs
by Jesse Garcia | Phillies Correspondent | Thu, Jul 4th 8:28am EDT
Jose Alvarado notched his 14th save of the season, allowing one hit and striking out one in a scoreless inning as the Phillies topped the Cubs 5-3.
Fantasy Impact:
This performance underscores his role as a reliable closer for Philadelphia, maintaining a solid 3.09 ERA and a 1.03 WHIP through 38 appearances. His ability to keep runs off the board while posting a decent strikeout rate (9.8 K/9) continues to make him a valuable asset in fantasy leagues, especially in categories like saves and ERA. Given his consistent season stats and low WHIP, Alvarado should remain a staple in fantasy lineups, particularly for those in need of saves and strikeouts.
