Chris Sale Dominates Reds, Braves Cruise to Victory
by Chase Davis | Braves Correspondent | Fri, Sep 20th 8:20am EDT
Chris Sale delivered a strong performance, allowing two earned runs on five hits and two walks while striking out six over five innings in Thursday's 15-3 rout of the Reds.
Fantasy Impact:
This outing, marked by efficiency and control, further solidifies Sale's position as a top-tier fantasy starter. With a season ERA now standing impressively at 2.38 and a WHIP at 1.01, his ability to rack up strikeouts (11.4 K/9) combined with a stellar 5.77 strikeout-to-walk ratio makes him a must-start in all formats. Sale's consistency and dominance, highlighted by his 18th win, should keep fantasy managers confident in his contributions as a cornerstone of their pitching staff.
