Richard Fitts flashes skill in no-decision against Yankees

Richard Fitts delivered a solid performance, tossing five scoreless innings, allowing just two hits and three walks while striking out two in Friday's 5-4 loss to the Yankees.
Fantasy Impact:
Despite a strong outing, Fitts didn't factor into the decision, and the Red Sox ultimately fell short. His season ERA remains pristine at 0.00 across two starts, complemented by a 1.13 WHIP. However, his low strikeout rate of 3.4 K/9 and modest 1.00 K/BB ratio suggest potential challenges in maintaining such sterling run prevention. Fitts's ability to limit hard contact, indicated by a .235 BABIP, is a positive sign, but fantasy managers should remain cautious. His performance is commendable, but the lack of strikeouts could limit his upside in fantasy formats.
