Aroldis Chapman Clinches Save in Tight Pirates Victory
by Chase Davis | Red Sox Correspondent | Fri, Sep 20th 8:31am EDT
Aroldis Chapman allowed one hit in a scoreless inning to secure the save as the Pirates edged the Cardinals 3-2 on Thursday.
Fantasy Impact:
Despite not recording any strikeouts, Chapman effectively closed the door on the Cardinals, adding another save to his season tally. His performance this season has been a mixed bag, characterized by a high ERA of 4.03 and a WHIP of 1.41, which are concerning for fantasy managers. However, his impressive strikeout rate of 14.3 K/9 continues to make him a valuable asset in categories that reward strikeouts. Fantasy managers should remain cautious, as his inconsistency and high rates of blown saves suggest potential volatility in his performances.
