Ryne Nelson Shines in Diamondbacks' Nail-Biter Win
by Emily Maingi | Diamondbacks Correspondent | Wed, Sep 4th 10:45am EDT
Ryne Nelson delivered a strong performance in the Diamondbacks' tight 8-7 victory over the Giants on Tuesday. He pitched 6.2 innings, allowing just two earned runs on four hits and two walks while striking out nine.
Fantasy Impact:
This outing was a bright spot in what has been a somewhat inconsistent season for Nelson, marked by a 4.15 ERA and a 1.26 WHIP. His ability to rack up nine strikeouts, well above his season average of 7.6 K/9, and maintain control with a solid 3.78 strikeout-to-walk ratio, underscores his potential as a valuable fantasy asset. Given his performance, fantasy managers should consider Nelson a viable option, particularly in matchups where his strikeout potential can be maximized. His FIP of 3.80 suggests some positive regression may still be on the horizon, making him a potentially savvy pick for those in deeper leagues or looking for a streaming option.
