by Chase Davis | Astros Correspondent | Fri, Aug 30th 8:28am EDT
Josh Hader delivered a flawless performance, tossing a hitless inning to notch his 29th save in the Astros' 6-3 victory over the Royals.
Fantasy Impact:
He threw 10 pitches, striking out one without allowing any walks or runs. This outing underscores Hader's role as a dominant closer, especially given his impressive season stats including a 3.19 ERA and a 0.91 WHIP. His ability to maintain a high strikeout rate (13.3 K/9) and a strong strikeout-to-walk ratio (4.40) continues to make him a top-tier fantasy option. The consistency in his performances, highlighted by his low BABIP (.225), suggests sustained success, making him a must-start in all fantasy formats.
