Ian Hamilton Seals the Deal in Tight Yankees Victory

Ian Hamilton notched a save in the Yankees' 2-1 win over the Mariners on Wednesday.
Fantasy Impact:
He allowed one hit and struck out two in a scoreless inning of work. This performance, which included his second save of the season, suggests a potential uptick in his fantasy value, especially if he continues to be trusted in save situations. Despite a somewhat elevated ERA and WHIP this season, his solid K/9 and FIP indicate underlying skills that could lead to more consistent late-game opportunities. Fantasy managers should keep an eye on Hamilton's role in the Yankees' bullpen, as his ability to strike out batters and close games can be quite valuable, especially in leagues that reward holds and saves.
