Kevin Gausman grinds through seven, Jays edge Cards 4-3
by Chris Schommer | Blue Jays Correspondent | Sat, Sep 14th 8:12am EDT
Kevin Gausman delivered a workmanlike performance, allowing two earned runs on nine hits and two walks while striking out three over seven innings in the Blue Jays' 4-3 victory over the Cardinals on Friday.
Fantasy Impact:
Despite not factoring into the decision, Gausman's outing was crucial in keeping the game close and helping his team secure a win. His season ERA now sits at 4.02, with a WHIP of 1.25, reflecting a mostly consistent, performance throughout the year. While his strikeout rate has dipped slightly to 8.1 K/9, his ability to manage games and maintain a solid ERA and WHIP should keep him relevant in most fantasy formats. However, fantasy managers might want to temper expectations for high strikeout totals moving forward.
