Clay Holmes secures save, Yankees top Cardinals 6-3

Clay Holmes delivered a clean inning to notch a save as the Yankees defeated the Cardinals 6-3 on Friday.
Fantasy Impact:
Holmes required only eight pitches to retire the side, allowing no hits, walks, or runs, although he didn't record any strikeouts. This performance underscores his role as a reliable closer for the Yankees, despite a season marred slightly by 10 blown saves. His ERA and WHIP remain commendable, and his ability to maintain a high strikeout rate (10.0 K/9) adds to his fantasy value. However, fantasy managers should remain cautious; his relatively high number of blown saves this season could be a concern.
