Edwin Diaz Delivers in Tight Mets Victory

Edwin Diaz tossed a hitless inning with one strikeout in the Mets' narrow 4-3 win over the Orioles on Monday.
Fantasy Impact:
This performance, marked by efficiency and control, is a positive sign for fantasy managers who have been riding the rollercoaster of Diaz's season. Despite a somewhat elevated ERA of 3.50 and five blown saves, his high strikeout rate (12.8 K/9) and solid WHIP (1.06) continue to make him a valuable asset in fantasy leagues, particularly in categories that reward strikeouts and WHIP. His ability to maintain a low BABIP (.274) also suggests some level of skill in limiting hard contact, which could hint at more stable outings ahead if he can keep the walks in check.
