Nate Pearson notched his second save of the season, allowing two hits and striking out one in a scoreless inning as the Blue Jays edged the Royals 6-5.
Fantasy Impact
This outing, while not flawless, showcased Pearson's ability to handle pressure situations despite allowing some traffic on the bases. His season ERA remains impressive at 1.80, and his WHIP, although a bit high at 1.40, hasn't stopped him from being effective. Holding onto Pearson in fantasy leagues could pay off, especially if he continues to secure save opportunities, but be wary of potential bumps given the hits allowed in tight scenarios.
