Charlie Morton shines, Braves fall short
by Chris Schommer | Braves Correspondent | Sun, Apr 28th 9:39am EDT
Charlie Morton delivered a stellar performance, allowing zero earned runs on four hits and one walk while striking out six over seven innings in Saturday's 4-2 loss to the Guardians.
Fantasy Impact:
Despite his strong outing, Morton's efforts weren't enough to secure a win for Atlanta, as the team's offense struggled to capitalize on his dominance. This game further solidifies Morton's role as a reliable starter in fantasy lineups, especially given his impressive 3.60 ERA and 1.13 WHIP for the season. His ability to maintain a high strikeout rate (8.4 K/9) and a decent strikeout-to-walk ratio (2.55) should keep him relevant in all fantasy formats. Moving forward, Morton's performances can be a significant asset, particularly in leagues that value pitching metrics such as ERA, WHIP, and strikeouts.
