Aroldis Chapman shuts the door on Guardians, Pirates win 3-0

Aroldis Chapman delivered a flawless performance, securing his fifth save of the season in the Pirates' 3-0 victory over the Guardians.

Fantasy Impact:

He threw 16 pitches, allowing no hits or walks and striking out two. This outing is a bright spot in what has been a somewhat turbulent season for Chapman, characterized by a 3.48 ERA and a WHIP of 1.34. His high strikeout rate (14.6 K/9) continues to make him a valuable asset in fantasy leagues that reward strikeouts, but his inconsistency in save situations, with four blown saves, might still be a concern. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his usage closely, especially in leagues where holds and saves are equally valuable.
