Clay Holmes Seals the Deal: Yanks Top Nats 5-2

by Matthew Adam | Yankees Correspondent | Tue, Aug 27th 6:05am EDT

Clay Holmes delivered a clean slate in Monday's 5-2 victory over the Nationals, tossing a hitless inning to notch his 29th save of the season.

Fantasy Impact:

Holmes's performance was efficient, requiring just 19 pitches to secure the win, although he didn't record any strikeouts. This outing continues a solid season for Holmes, who boasts a 2.72 ERA and a commendable 10.2 K/9 rate. Despite a slightly elevated WHIP of 1.25 and a concerning number of blown saves (10), his ability to close games effectively, as evidenced by his 28 saves, keeps him relevant in fantasy circles. Owners should continue to deploy him with confidence, particularly in leagues that heavily reward saves.
