Logan Gilbert delivered an exceptional performance, allowing no earned runs on just two hits and four walks while striking out six over eight innings in Saturday's 5-0 victory over the Astros.
Fantasy Impact
This outing not only underscores his dominance this season but also bolsters his fantasy value significantly. With a sparkling 1.69 ERA and 0.79 WHIP through seven starts, Gilbert has proven to be a top-tier fantasy starter. His ability to maintain a high strikeout rate (9.4 K/9) while keeping runners off base is particularly valuable in fantasy formats that reward strikeouts and WHIP. Given his consistent performance and low BABIP (.184), fantasy managers should consider him a must-start in all formats, expecting continued success based on his strong underlying metrics.
