Kevin Gausman Shines in Dominant Outing Against Angels
by Emily Maingi | Blue Jays Correspondent | Wed, Aug 14th 10:53am EDT
Kevin Gausman delivered a stellar performance on Tuesday, blanking the Angels over seven innings in a 6-1 victory for the Blue Jays.
Fantasy Impact:
He allowed no earned runs on six hits and two walks while striking out five. This outing was a breath of fresh air for Gausman, whose season ERA of 4.20 and WHIP of 1.26 have painted the picture of a somewhat inconsistent year. The shutout innings should help in lowering his ERA and boosting his confidence. His solid K/9 rate of 8.1 remains an asset, and performances like this reinforce his value in fantasy leagues, especially in categories like ERA and WHIP. Moving forward, fantasy managers should feel a bit more reassured of his reliability as a starting option.
