Tyler Ferguson Seals the Deal in Tight Athletics Victory
by Chase Davis | Athletics Correspondent | Fri, Jul 26th 8:23am EDT
Tyler Ferguson tossed a perfect inning, striking out two and securing the save as the Athletics edged out the Angels 6-5 on Thursday.
Fantasy Impact:
Ferguson's performance was a textbook example of efficiency, needing only 13 pitches to retire the side and notch his first save of the season. This outing should provide a slight boost to his 3.97 ERA and 1.15 WHIP, metrics that fantasy managers have been eyeing cautiously. With a solid 10.3 K/9 rate and improving command, Ferguson is slowly carving out a more reliable role in high-pressure situations, which could mean more save opportunities if he maintains this form. However, his sporadic save chances and previous inconsistencies might keep him as a speculative add in deeper fantasy leagues for now.
