Framber Valdez dazzles in no-hit bid against Royals
by Chris Schommer | Astros Correspondent | Sat, Aug 31st 7:36am EDT
Framber Valdez turned in a masterful performance on Friday, tossing seven no-hit innings while walking three and striking out seven in a tight 3-2 victory over the Royals.
Fantasy Impact:
Despite not factoring into the decision, Valdez's dominance was on full display, reinforcing his status as a top-tier fantasy starter. His season ERA now sits at 3.11, with a WHIP of 1.12, and his ability to maintain a high strikeout rate (8.7 K/9) alongside a solid strikeout-to-walk ratio continues to make him a valuable asset in all fantasy formats. This outing should reassure managers about his reliability, especially considering his consistent performance throughout the season, marked by a sustainable .286 BABIP and a strong fielding independent pitching at 3.32.
