Brady Basso shines in shutout against White Sox
by Chris Schommer | Athletics Correspondent | Sat, Sep 14th 9:28am EDT
Brady Basso delivered a stellar performance, tossing 5 1/3 scoreless innings, allowing just five hits and one walk while striking out two in the Athletics' 2-0 victory over the White Sox on Friday.
Fantasy Impact:
This outing continues a promising start to Basso's season, now holding a 1.23 ERA and 0.89 WHIP over his initial starts. His low strikeout numbers might concern some fantasy managers, but his ability to limit runs and maintain a strong WHIP are valuable assets. Basso's performance should keep him in consideration for those in deeper leagues or as a streaming option, especially given his ability to manage contact effectively, evidenced by a .244 BABIP. Keep an eye on his strikeout rates, but for now, Basso's efficiency makes him a viable fantasy option.
