Ryan Helsley notched his 33rd save of the season, striking out three in a clean inning as the Cardinals edged the Pirates 2-1.
Fantasy Impact:
His performance was a textbook example of why he's considered a top-tier closer in fantasy leagues. With a 2.25 ERA and a 1.16 WHIP through 43 appearances, Helsley continues to be a reliable source of saves and strikeouts. His impressive 10.8 K/9 and 2.67 FIP suggest that his success is backed by solid underlying skills, not just good fortune. Fantasy managers should feel confident keeping him active in all formats, as he remains a critical component of a competitive fantasy bullpen.
