Holmes Seals the Deal in Tight Yankees Victory

by Jesse Garcia | Yankees Correspondent | Wed, Jul 31st 9:31pm EDT

Clay Holmes secured his 22nd save of the season, allowing one hit in a scoreless inning as the Yankees edged out the Phillies 6-5 on Wednesday.

Fantasy Impact:

Despite not recording any strikeouts, Holmes effectively managed to keep the Phillies at bay to clinch the win. His performance this season, characterized by a solid 2.82 ERA and a 9.07 K/9 rate, continues to make him a reliable option for saves in fantasy leagues, although his WHIP of 1.34 and eight blown saves might raise some concerns. However, his ability to close out games, as evidenced by today's outing, should keep him firmly in the role of closer, maintaining his relevance in all formats where saves are a premium.
