Ryan Pepiot Shines in Tight Victory Over Angels
by Chase Davis | Rays Correspondent | Fri, Apr 19th 8:18am EDT
Ryan Pepiot delivered a strong performance allowing one run, three hits, three walks, and seven strikeouts in Thursday's 2-1 win against the Angels.
Fantasy Impact:
He pitched six innings, allowing just one earned run on three hits and three walks while striking out seven. This outing marks a significant improvement for Pepiot, whose season ERA dropped to 4.37 and WHIP to 1.01. His ability to maintain a high strikeout rate (10.7 K/9) and a solid strikeout-to-walk ratio (3.38) continues to make him a valuable asset in fantasy leagues, especially in categories that reward strikeouts and WHIP. Despite a somewhat elevated ERA, his low BABIP (.240) suggests some bad luck has been at play, indicating potential for even better performances ahead. Fantasy managers should consider Pepiot a viable starting option, particularly in matchups where strikeouts are heavily rewarded.
