Kenley Jansen Locks Down Tight Win for Red Sox
by Jesse Garcia | Thu, Sep 19th 8:00am EDT
Kenley Jansen secured his 27th save of the season, tossing a hitless inning while striking out two and walking two in the Red Sox's narrow 2-1 victory over the Rays.
Fantasy Impact:
Despite the pair of walks, Jansen managed to keep his composure and prevent any runs, maintaining his solid season performance. His ERA now improves slightly from 3.42, reflecting a consistent ability to shut down opponents in crucial moments. With a WHIP still hovering around 1.10 and a strong strikeout rate, Jansen remains a reliable option for fantasy managers in need of saves, though his occasional control issues, as evidenced by today's walks, remind us to temper expectations slightly. His ability to navigate high-pressure situations, however, continues to make him a valuable asset in most fantasy formats.
