Carlos Estevez Clings to Save Despite Shaky Outing
by Matthew Adam | Royals Correspondent | Tue, May 21st 5:28am EDT
Carlos Estevez allowed two hits and one earned run but secured the save in the Angels' 9-7 victory over the Astros.
Fantasy Impact:
Despite navigating through a rocky inning where he also issued a walk, Estevez managed to close out the game without striking out any batters. This performance, while successful in terms of adding another save to his tally, underscores a troubling trend in his season. With a ballooning ERA of 5.17 and a WHIP that, while decent, doesn't offer much comfort at 1.15, Estevez's reliability as a closer is becoming increasingly questionable. Fantasy managers should be wary; while he's accumulating saves, his high ERA and lack of clean outings could be a liability.
