Michael Kopech Saves the Day, Despite Control Issues
by Jesse Garcia | Dodgers Correspondent | Thu, Sep 12th 8:27am EDT
Michael Kopech secured the save in a nail-biting 10-8 victory over the Cubs, despite a shaky outing.
Fantasy Impact:
Kopech allowed one earned run and three walks while striking out one over an inning of work. This performance, characterized by his struggle with control, encapsulates his season's challenges and successes. His ERA slightly increased, but his ability to close games remains evident with his 13th save. Fantasy managers should be mildly concerned about his high walk rate, which could undermine his WHIP and ERA, but his strikeout ability keeps him relevant in leagues valuing relievers. Kopech's role as a closer appears secure, but his inconsistency might be a rollercoaster for fantasy managers.
