Alexis Diaz Seals the Deal in Tight Victory
by Matthew Adam | Reds Correspondent | Tue, Sep 10th 5:56am EDT
Alexis Diaz delivered a clean inning to notch a save as the Reds edged out the Braves 1-0.
Fantasy Impact:
Diaz's outing was efficient, requiring only 12 pitches to secure the game without allowing any hits, walks, or runs, although he didn't record any strikeouts. This performance lowers his season ERA slightly but remains a concern at 4.30, coupled with a WHIP of 1.30. Despite these less-than-stellar metrics, Diaz's ability to convert saves, now totaling 27, keeps him relevant in fantasy leagues primarily for his save potential. However, his moderate strikeout rate (8.8 K/9) and high FIP (4.75) suggest that fantasy managers should temper expectations and remain cautious, especially in leagues where ERA and WHIP heavily influence scoring.
