Holmes Shuts Down Rays, Secures 21st Save
by Jesse Garcia | Yankees Correspondent | Thu, Jul 11th 8:17am EDT
Clay Holmes delivered a flawless performance, striking out two in a clean inning to notch his 20th save as the Yankees edged the Rays 2-1 on Wednesday.
Fantasy Impact:
Holmes's precision was on full display, utilizing just 21 pitches to breeze through the inning without allowing a hit or a walk. This outing is a reassuring sign for fantasy managers, especially considering his solid season stats, including a 2.89 ERA and a 9.4 K/9 rate. Holmes's ability to suppress runs while maintaining a high strikeout-to-walk ratio bolsters his value as a reliable closer in fantasy leagues. Despite a slightly elevated WHIP and BABIP, his consistent save conversion rate should keep him as a staple in fantasy rosters needing late-game security.
