Kevin Gausman Shines in Shutout Against Rangers
by Chase Davis | Blue Jays Correspondent | Fri, Sep 20th 8:05am EDT
Kevin Gausman delivered a masterful performance in Thursday's 4-0 victory over the Texas Rangers.
Fantasy Impact:
He tossed five hitless innings, allowing just one walk while striking out six. This outing is a bright spot in what has been a somewhat turbulent season for Gausman, who leaves the game with a 3.91 ERA and a 1.22 WHIP. His ability to maintain a no-hit bid through five innings should reassure fantasy managers about his potential despite the ups and downs. With his ERA likely improved and his WHIP slightly tightened after this game, Gausman remains a viable fantasy starter, particularly in leagues that value strikeouts and WHIP. His consistent strikeout ability, evidenced by his 8.2 K/9 rate this season, continues to be a key asset.
