Luis Ortiz steadies ship with solid outing against White Sox
by Chris Schommer | Pirates Correspondent | Sun, Jul 14th 9:03am EDT
Luis L. Ortiz delivered a commendable performance in the Pirates' 6-2 victory over the White Sox, tossing 5 2/3 innings while allowing just one earned run and striking out five.
Fantasy Impact:
The right-hander's outing was a model of efficiency, scattering four hits and issuing only one walk, maintaining control throughout his appearance. This game underscores Ortiz's reliability in a starting role, reflecting his solid season ERA of 2.84 and WHIP of 1.16. His ability to minimize damage and maintain a decent strikeout rate adds a layer of dependability for fantasy managers, especially in formats valuing ERA and WHIP. While his role in saves situations remains limited, Ortiz's consistency as a starter can't be overlooked in leagues where innings and strikeouts are premium.
