Shota Imanaga delivered a masterful performance, allowing no earned runs on four hits and one walk while striking out seven over seven innings in Saturday's 1-0 win over the Pirates.
Fantasy Impact
This outing continues a stellar season for Imanaga, who maintains an impressive 0.84 ERA and a 0.91 WHIP across nine starts. His ability to suppress runs while maintaining a high strikeout rate (9.7 K/9) and a superb strikeout-to-walk ratio (6.44) solidifies his status as a top-tier fantasy option. Given his consistent performance and low BABIP (.266), which suggests some luck but also skill in inducing weak contact, fantasy managers should consider him a must-start in all formats. His dominance is a significant asset, especially in leagues that reward pitching metrics like ERA, WHIP, and strikeouts.
