Tyler Anderson dominates Cubs in shutout victory
by Chris Schommer | Angels Correspondent | Sun, Jul 7th 8:24am EDT
Tyler Anderson delivered a masterclass performance Saturday, blanking the Cubs over eight innings while allowing just three hits and striking out ten in a 7-0 win for the Angels.
Fantasy Impact:
This outing was a bright spot in what has been a mixed season for Anderson, whose ERA dipped to an impressive 2.81 and WHIP to 1.18. Despite a lower-than-average strikeout rate of 6.2 K/9 and a concerning 4.61 FIP, today's game showcased his ability to control the game and keep hitters off balance. His perfect strikeout-to-walk ratio today should give fantasy managers some hope, but the low BABIP this season suggests some luck involved. Moving forward, Anderson remains a risky play, depending on the matchup, given the underlying metrics that hint at potential regression.
