Bradford's Effort Solid in Rangers' Victory

Cody Bradford navigated through 3.2 innings, allowing one earned run on six hits and three walks while striking out four in Wednesday's 5-1 win over the Athletics.

Fantasy Impact

Despite a relatively short outing, Bradford managed to keep his team in a position to win, limiting the damage to just one run. His performance this season has been commendable, boasting a 3.54 ERA and a 1.01 WHIP over 13 starts. His ability to maintain a high strikeout-to-walk ratio (5.38) and a decent K/9 rate (8.3) continues to make him a reliable option in fantasy leagues, particularly in formats that value WHIP and strikeout efficiency. While the short start might not rack up many points in innings-pitched categories, his overall stability helps balance fantasy rosters looking for consistent starting pitching.
