Joey Estes shines in stellar season debut
by Chris Schommer | Athletics Correspondent | Sun, May 12th 8:37am EDT
Joey Estes delivered a commanding performance, allowing just one earned run on two hits while striking out five over five innings in Saturday's 8-1 victory over the Mariners.
Fantasy Impact:
This outing not only secured his first win of the season but also showcased his potential as a reliable starter in fantasy lineups. With a sparkling 1.80 ERA and 0.40 WHIP after his first start, Estes is making a strong case for increased attention in fantasy circles. His impressive strikeout rate of 9.0 K/9 and minimal walk rate enhance his appeal, suggesting that he could be a valuable asset if he maintains this form. While his .091 BABIP indicates some luck, his solid performance could be a sign of breakout potential or at least a reliable streaming option moving forward.
