Paul Skenes Dominates Brewers in Masterful Outing
by Chase Davis | Pirates Correspondent | Fri, Jul 12th 8:22am EDT
Paul Skenes delivered a gem against the Milwaukee Brewers, tossing seven no-hit innings in a tight 1-0 victory for the Pittsburgh Pirates on Thursday.
Fantasy Impact:
He threw 99 pitches, allowed no hits and one walk while striking out 11 batters. This performance not only highlights Skenes's dominance but also solidifies his status as a top-tier fantasy option. His season ERA now impressively stands at 1.90, and his WHIP at 0.92, with a stellar 12.1 K/9 rate. Given these metrics, especially his high strikeout rate and low ERA, Skenes should be considered a must-start in all fantasy formats. His ability to maintain a high level of performance, as evidenced by his unblemished win-loss record and low BABIP, suggests sustained success. Fantasy managers would be wise to keep riding the hot hand of Skenes as a cornerstone of their pitching staffs.
