Festa Shows Improvement, Twins Edge Phillies 5-4

David Festa delivered a solid performance in Wednesday's tight 5-4 victory over the Phillies.
Fantasy Impact:
He pitched 4.1 innings, allowing just one earned run on four hits and two walks while striking out seven. This outing was a significant step up from his earlier season struggles, where he posted a hefty 8.16 ERA across his first two starts. Festa's ability to strike out seven batters while keeping his walks relatively low suggests potential for better control and effectiveness moving forward. His high strikeout rate continues to be a silver lining, and if he can maintain this level of performance, he might just carve out a more stable role in the Twins' rotation, offering a speculative add for fantasy managers in deeper leagues.
