Michael Tonkin Shines in Extended Save Opportunity
by Jesse Garcia | Twins Correspondent | Thu, Aug 15th 7:24am EDT
Michael Tonkin delivered a stellar performance, pitching three scoreless innings while allowing just two hits and striking out two to secure a save in the Yankees' 10-2 victory over the White Sox.
Fantasy Impact:
This outing not only added a save to his season tally but also showcased his ability to handle longer relief stints effectively. Tonkin's season ERA dipped to an impressive 3.21, complementing his solid 1.15 WHIP and 9.2 K/9 rate. His performance should reassure fantasy managers of his reliability in both holds and save situations, despite a couple of blown saves earlier in the season. Given his ability to strike out batters and manage game situations, Tonkin remains a viable option in leagues that value middle relievers or setup men with potential save opportunities.
