Elvis Peguero pitched a clean inning with one strikeout in the Brewers' 1-0 victory over the Cubs on Tuesday.

Fantasy Impact

His performance was efficient, utilizing only 12 pitches to retire the side without allowing any hits, walks, or runs. This outing should provide a slight boost to his season-long metrics, particularly lowering his already respectable 3.10 ERA and 1.52 WHIP. While his K/9 rate and strikeout-to-walk ratio suggest he's not the most dominant reliever, Peguero's ability to secure holds and occasionally step in for saves makes him a viable option in deeper fantasy leagues. His consistency in low-scoring games could be a valuable asset, especially in leagues that reward holds and low ERA contributions.

Elvis Peguero pitched a clean inning, striking out one to notch a save in the Brewers' 3-1 win over the Rangers on Tuesday.

Fantasy Impact

Peguero's efficient 12-pitch outing helped him secure his third save of the season, contributing to a slightly improving season profile. Despite a less-than-ideal 1.47 WHIP and a BABIP of .337 indicating some bad luck, his ERA remains a respectable 2.81. His strikeout rate isn't overwhelming at 7.9 K/9, but his ability to close games could see a potential uptick in save opportunities if he continues to perform reliably in clutch situations. Fantasy managers should keep an eye on his usage in high-leverage spots, as his role could expand, enhancing his value in formats that reward saves and holds.

Elvis Peguero tossed a clean inning to notch a save as the Brewers edged out the Cubs 6-4 on Thursday.

Fantasy Impact

He allowed just one hit and zero runs, keeping his composure to seal the game for Milwaukee. This is Peguero's first save of the season, complementing his solid ERA of 2.92. Despite a concerning WHIP of 1.58, his ability to close games could hint at more save opportunities, but fantasy managers should remain cautious due to his high WHIP and BABIP, which suggest potential volatility. His moderate strikeout rate of 8.0 K/9 doesn't make him a standout for strikeouts, but his role in late-game situations could still offer value in leagues counting holds and saves.
