Martin Perez shines in tight contest

Martin Perez delivered a solid performance in Saturday's narrow 3-2 victory over the Rockies.
Fantasy Impact:
He allowed just one earned run on three hits and struck out seven across six innings, issuing no walks. This outing was a refreshing change of pace for Perez, whose season has been marred by a high 4.96 ERA and 1.57 WHIP. His ability to avoid walks and effectively manage hits in this game could be a sign of turning things around, though his season-long metrics suggest caution. Fantasy managers should monitor if this performance is a start of a trend or merely a blip in an otherwise challenging season.
