Camilo Doval allowed one earned run and two walks while striking out two to notch a save in Friday's 2-1 victory over the Royals.

Despite securing his 23rd save, Doval's performance was less than reassuring, continuing a trend of high-wire acts that have characterized his season. With a bloated 5.24 ERA and a WHIP of 1.65, his ability to close games is overshadowed by frequent lapses in control and efficiency. While his strikeout rate remains impressive, fantasy managers should remain wary of his potential for damaging WHIP and ERA, making him a risky play in all but the most save-hungry formats.

The Giants are expected to recall Camilo Doval from Triple-A Sacramento during the upcoming road trip, per manager Bob Melvin.

Doval has worked through some of the walk issues that plagued him with the Giants. He is unlikely to return to the closer’s role for the Giants immediately, with Ryan Walker handling the bulk of the save opportunities currently.

The Giants have optioned Camilo Doval to Triple-A Sacramento.

Doval has struggled this season, posting a 4.70 ERA and a 1.61 WHIP in 46 games this season. He will look to regain his confidence in the minors and become an option for the Giants later in the season.

Camilo Doval notched another save, allowing a hit and a walk in a scoreless frame as the Giants topped the Nationals 7-4.

Fantasy Impact

Despite the lack of strikeouts in this outing, Doval managed to secure his 22nd save of the season, navigating through a slightly shaky inning. His ERA and WHIP this season have been less than stellar, reflecting some inconsistency in his performances. Fantasy managers should be cautious; while his save numbers are appealing, his high WHIP and ERA could be a liability. His ability to strike out batters remains a strong point, but the elevated BABIP suggests he might be experiencing some bad luck or issues with his pitch execution. Keep an eye on his outings for potential improvements or further struggles.

Camilo Doval delivered a flawless performance, striking out three in a clean inning to secure the save in the Giants' 4-1 victory over the Nationals on Monday.

Fantasy Impact

This outing was a bright spot in what has been a somewhat erratic season for Doval, characterized by a higher-than-desirable ERA of 4.29 and a WHIP of 1.57. However, his impressive strikeout rate of 12.0 K/9 continues to make him a valuable asset in categories that reward strikeouts. The save tonight adds to his tally, bringing him to 21 saves for the season, though his four blown saves might still be a concern for fantasy managers. Moving forward, while Doval's ability to miss bats is undeniable, his overall effectiveness as a closer will hinge on his ability to limit base runners and maintain control, as indicated by his elevated BABIP and modest strikeout-to-walk ratio.
