Fantasy Impact

Banda added one strikeout for his second save on the season. He should remain in a high-leverage role in the Dodgers bullpen.

Fantasy Impact

It was the first save of the season for Banda. The Dodgers closer situation remains up in the air.

Anthony Banda allowed three hits and one earned run while striking out two as the opener against the Phillies.

Fantasy Impact

Despite his efforts, the Dodgers succumbed to a 5-1 defeat. Banda's performance this season has been solid with a 2.35 ERA and a 1.39 WHIP over 21 appearances, but outings like this highlight the volatility that can come with middle relievers in fantasy baseball. His 8.6 K/9 rate remains appealing for strikeouts, but his WHIP suggests potential for inconsistency. Fantasy managers should view Banda as a situational player rather than a staple in their bullpen, especially in leagues that heavily penalize earned runs or hits.
