Adrian Morejon Seals Tight Victory for Padres
by Jesse Garcia | Padres Correspondent | Thu, Aug 8th 8:06am EDT
Adrian Morejon delivered a flawless inning to notch a save in the Padres' nail-biting 9-8 win over the Pirates on Wednesday.
Fantasy Impact:
He threw 13 pitches, allowed no hits or walks, and struck out one batter. This performance marks a continuation of Morejon's solid season, where he maintains a 2.66 ERA and a 1.25 WHIP across 40 appearances. His ability to strike out nearly ten batters per nine innings while keeping a decent strikeout-to-walk ratio of 3.25 makes him a reliable option in leagues that value middle relievers or setup men, especially in formats that reward holds and saves. While Morejon's role may primarily be in setup situations, his occasional saves and consistent outings contribute positively to fantasy rosters needing stability in the bullpen.
