James McArthur Seals the Deal for Royals

James McArthur notched a save in the Royals' 6-4 victory over the Brewers on Wednesday.

Fantasy Impact:

He faced the minimum in his brief appearance, throwing just three pitches to secure the game. This performance, while not flashy, was crucial in a tight contest and helps stabilize his somewhat rocky season stats, which include a 4.15 ERA and a 1.38 WHIP. McArthur's ability to close games without allowing hits or walks in this outing is a positive sign, but his high BABIP (.380) and inconsistent strikeout numbers (9.3 K/9) suggest potential volatility. Fantasy managers should view him as a somewhat risky but necessary option for saves, keeping an eye on his outings for signs of improvement or further inconsistency.
