Holmes Clutches Save in Nail-Biter Against Rangers
by Jesse Garcia | Yankees Correspondent | Sun, Aug 11th 8:45pm EDT
Clay Holmes secured his 25th save despite a shaky outing in the Yankees' narrow 8-7 victory over the Rangers.
Fantasy Impact:
Holmes allowed one earned run and two walks while striking out two over 1.1 innings. This performance, while effective in preserving the win, highlighted some ongoing concerns with his control, as evidenced by his season WHIP of 1.31 and a slightly elevated number of walks. Despite these issues, Holmes's ability to notch saves, now totaling 25, keeps him relevant in fantasy leagues, particularly those that heavily reward saves. However, his tendency for walks and the occasional earned run could be a red flag for fantasy managers looking for more stability from their closers.
