by Jesse Garcia | Yankees Correspondent | Thu, Sep 19th 8:13am EDT
Nestor Cortes Jr. delivered a masterful performance, tossing six scoreless innings, allowing just four hits and three walks while striking out six in Wednesday's 2-1 win against the Mariners.
Fantasy Impact:
This outing was a bright spot in what has been a solid season for Cortes, characterized by a decent ERA of 3.77 and a strong WHIP of 1.15. His ability to maintain control and efficiency, as evidenced by his 4.15 strikeout-to-walk ratio and a FIP of 3.93, continues to make him a reliable option in fantasy lineups. Despite a mixed win-loss record, his consistent strikeout ability (8.4 K/9) and low BABIP (.288) suggest that he often finds ways to limit damage and should remain a valuable asset in most fantasy formats.
