Jose Alvarado seals the deal against Giants
by Chris Schommer | Phillies Correspondent | Sat, May 4th 8:25am EDT
Jose Alvarado notched his sixth save of the season, allowing one hit and striking out one in a scoreless inning as the Phillies edged out the Giants 4-3 on Friday.
Fantasy Impact:
This outing was a typical performance for Alvarado, who has been a reliable option in the late innings, maintaining a solid 3.95 ERA and a 1.24 WHIP through 15 appearances. His ability to strike out batters at a decent clip (9.2 K/9) combined with a strong 2.74 FIP suggests that he can be trusted in high-leverage situations. Fantasy managers should feel confident in Alvarado's role as a closer, especially given his consistent save opportunities and a perfect record in save situations this season. His performance should continue to provide value in all formats where saves are a premium.
