by Jesse Garcia | Reds Correspondent | Wed, Sep 4th 11:03pm EDT
Nick Martinez navigated through 5.2 innings, yielding just one earned run on six hits and three walks while striking out seven in Wednesday's 12-5 victory over the Astros.
Fantasy Impact:
This performance not only secured a win for Martinez, boosting his record to 7-6, but also demonstrated his ability to maintain control and effectiveness under pressure. His season ERA now sits at a respectable 3.67, complemented by a solid 1.15 WHIP. Martinez's ability to strike out batters at a decent clip, combined with a strong strikeout-to-walk ratio, continues to make him a viable option in fantasy leagues, especially given his consistent performance in limiting runs. His latest outing should reassure fantasy managers about his reliability as a starting pitcher in their rotations.
