Dylan Cease delivered a stellar performance in Friday's 7-1 victory over the Diamondbacks.
Fantasy Impact
He allowed just one earned run on three hits and zero walks while striking out eight over 6 2/3 innings. This outing underscores Cease's season-long dominance, as evidenced by his impressive 2.55 ERA and 0.80 WHIP. His ability to maintain a high strikeout rate (10.2 K/9) without surrendering walks enhances his fantasy value significantly. The lack of walks in this game is particularly encouraging and should reassure fantasy managers about his control. Moving forward, Cease's consistent performance, coupled with a low BABIP (.188), suggests he could continue to be a top-tier fantasy starter, especially if he maintains this level of command and effectiveness.
