by Jesse Garcia | Red Sox Correspondent | Thu, Sep 12th 8:06am EDT
Nick Pivetta delivered a strong performance in Wednesday's 5-3 victory over the Orioles.
Fantasy Impact:
He allowed just one earned run on four hits and one walk while striking out nine over six innings. This outing was a bright spot in what has been a rollercoaster season for Pivetta, who entered the game with a 4.24 ERA and 1.13 WHIP. His ability to rack up strikeouts was on full display, aligning with his impressive 10.9 K/9 rate this season. Despite his losing record, performances like this highlight his potential value in fantasy leagues, particularly for those in need of strikeouts. However, his inconsistency this year suggests a cautious approach in relying on him as a regular starter.
