Availability
Chris Sale allowed one earned run on eight hits and one walk while striking out six over six innings in Sunday's 13-1 win over the Guardians.
Fantasy Impact
Sale picked up his third win in four starts, as the Braves turned this one into a laugher. This was a great rebound for Sale, who was not his typically dominant self last time out against the Angels. The ace lefty now has a 3.27 ERA, 1.05 WHIP, and 22-6 K/BB ratio through 22 innings.
Chris Sale allowed six earned runs on five hits and two walks while striking out seven over four-plus innings in Monday's 6-2 loss to the Angels.
Fantasy Impact
Sale needed 77 pitches to record 12 outs Monday in the kind of uncharacteristically poor outing that gets fantasy managers reaching for the antacids. The ace lefty more than deserves the benefit of the doubt here, as he was superb in his first two starts of the season and has built a Hall of Fame resume in his career. It's also notable that Sale was under the weather the previous few days. He will look to bounce back Sunday against the Guardians.
Chris Sale allowed one earned run on one hit and no walks while striking out three over six innings in Wednesday's 5-1 win over the Athletics.
Fantasy Impact
With this excellent effort, Sale now has a 0.75 ERA and 0.58 WHIP with a 2-0 record through two starts. The Atlanta ace has struck out nine compared to just three walks across 12 innings so far. He will try to keep this rhythm going against the Angels on Monday.
Chris Sale allowed three hits and three walks while striking out six over six scoreless innings in Friday's 6-0 win over Kansas City.
Fantasy Impact
Sale was nothing short of ace-like on Opening Day. This is exactly the type of performance fantasy managers were looking from the future Hall of Famer. Sale should return to the bump Wednesday against the Athletics.
Chris Sale has been named the Opening Day starting pitcher for the Atlanta Braves against the Kansas City Royals the club announced.
Fantasy Impact
Sale will take the hill against Kansas City left-hander Cole Ragans in the season opener, posting a 1.07 WHIP and 2.58 ERA in 21 appearances (7-5, 165 strikeouts) on the mound during the 2025 season. The veteran left-hander projects as a top starting option for fantasy managers while leading an injury-ravaged Atlanta rotation entering the 2026 season.
