Tyler Holton Stifles Padres in Two-Inning Outing
by Matthew Adam | Tigers Correspondent | Tue, Sep 3rd 5:36am EDT
Tyler Holton delivered a strong performance, allowing just one hit and striking out one over two scoreless innings in Monday's 3-0 loss to the Padres.
Fantasy Impact:
Despite the Tigers' inability to capitalize on his effort, Holton continued to showcase why he's a reliable option in fantasy leagues, particularly those that value middle relievers. His season ERA now sits impressively at 2.38, complemented by a stellar 0.82 WHIP. While his strikeout rate isn't eye-popping, his control and ability to limit base runners make him a valuable asset in deeper leagues or formats that reward holds and low ratios. Holton's consistent performance, marked by a lack of blown saves and a high number of holds, suggests he should remain a steady presence in fantasy lineups, especially in leagues that value the nuances of middle relief pitching.
