Jake Irvin shines in Nationals' rout
by Chris Schommer | Nationals Correspondent | Sun, Jul 28th 8:32am EDT
Jake Irvin delivered a solid performance, allowing two earned runs on four hits and one walk while striking out five over 5 1/3 innings in Saturday's 14-3 victory over the Cardinals.
Fantasy Impact:
This outing continues a season of reliable starts for Irvin, who now boasts a 3.44 ERA and a 1.08 WHIP through 22 starts. His ability to maintain a low WHIP and a decent strikeout rate (7.8 K/9) makes him a valuable asset in fantasy leagues, particularly in categories that reward precision and efficiency. While his FIP suggests some room for regression, his consistent performance, highlighted by a strong strikeout-to-walk ratio (3.70), should keep him relevant in fantasy rotations.
