David Bednar clinches save in narrow victory
by Chris Schommer | Pirates Correspondent | Sat, Aug 24th 8:53am EDT
David Bednar secured his 23rd save of the season in a tight 6-5 win over the Reds.
Fantasy Impact:
Bednar allowed one hit and one walk while striking out one batter in his inning of work. Despite a rocky season with a 5.56 ERA and 1.37 WHIP, Bednar's ability to close games remains evident, though his inconsistency can be a headache for fantasy managers. His high strikeout rate (9.7 K/9) continues to be a redeeming quality, offering some solace amidst the elevated ERA and WHIP. Moving forward, while Bednar remains a viable closing option in fantasy leagues, managers should be wary of his potential for volatility in each appearance.
