View More NewsRichard Lovelady Seals the Deal for Rays
Richard Lovelady pitched a clean inning, allowing no hits, walks, or runs, and did not record any strikeouts as he notched a save in the Rays' 5-2 victory over the Guardians.
Fantasy Impact
This performance, while efficient, underscores Lovelady's season of mixed results. With a 4.75 ERA and a 1.35 WHIP over 30 games, his reliability as a fantasy option remains questionable. His low strikeout rate (6.5 K/9) doesn't help his case in categories that reward strikeouts. However, securing his second save might indicate a growing trust in high-leverage situations, which could slightly boost his fantasy value if this trend continues. Nonetheless, fantasy managers should remain cautious, given his overall season metrics and inconsistency.
