Kopech Seals the Deal in Tight Dodgers Victory

Michael Kopech logged a save in the Dodgers' 4-3 win over the Padres on Wednesday.
Fantasy Impact:
Kopech delivered a solid inning, allowing no hits and striking out one, though he did issue a walk. This performance underscores his role as a key component in the Dodgers' bullpen, especially in close games. His season stats, including a 3.56 ERA and a 1.17 WHIP, along with a strong 11.6 K/9 rate, suggest he remains a reliable option for strikeouts and saves in fantasy leagues. However, his somewhat elevated FIP and walk rates could be a concern for risk-averse fantasy managers. Kopech's ability to notch his 15th save of the season should keep him in the mix for high-leverage situations, but fantasy managers should monitor his control issues to gauge his consistency as the season progresses.
