Nathan Eovaldi took the loss Saturday, yielding three earned runs on six hits while striking out six over seven innings against the Twins.
Fantasy Impact:
Despite the defeat, Eovaldi maintained control throughout his outing, avoiding any walks, which aligns with his strong season-long command. His season ERA slightly increased to 3.76, and his WHIP remains impressive at 1.09, reinforcing his status as a reliable starter in most fantasy formats. However, his FIP at 3.99 suggests some of his success might be influenced by factors outside his control, such as team defense or luck. Fantasy managers should continue to view Eovaldi as a solid rotation option, though they should be wary of matchups against high-scoring teams.
