Ryan Thompson Seals the Deal with a Save
by Jesse Garcia | Diamondbacks Correspondent | Wed, Jul 31st 10:28pm EDT
Ryan Thompson delivered a crucial save in the Diamondbacks' narrow 5-4 victory over the Nationals.
Fantasy Impact:
He efficiently handled his business, striking out one in 0.2 innings without allowing a hit or a run. This performance marked Thompson's first save of the season, a notable achievement given his previous five blown saves and 19 holds. His ability to step up in a tight game could hint at a potential shift in his usage, possibly earning him more save opportunities if he continues to leverage his solid 1.81 ERA and 0.96 WHIP effectively. Fantasy managers should keep a close eye on Thompson's role in high-leverage situations, as his success in these could lead to increased fantasy value.
