Blake Snell Strikes Out Eight in Solid Win
by Jesse Garcia | Giants Correspondent | Wed, Aug 7th 10:41pm EDT
Blake Snell delivered a strong performance, allowing three earned runs on four hits and one walk while striking out eight over six innings in Wednesday's 7-4 victory over the Nationals.
Fantasy Impact:
This outing marks a positive shift for Snell, whose season has been marred by inconsistency, evident from his 4.29 ERA and 1-3 record prior to this game. However, his high strikeout rate (11.5 K/9) and solid WHIP (1.10) continue to make him a valuable asset in fantasy leagues, especially in categories that reward strikeouts and WHIP. His improved control shown by a 3.20 strikeout-to-walk ratio and a strong outing today should give fantasy managers some confidence, though his ERA still suggests caution.
