View More NewsCade Smith coughs up a save chance as Guardians fall 6-5
Cade Smith allowed one hit and no walks while striking out one batter and getting charged with an unearned run over one inning to earn a blown save in the 6-5 loss to the Cardinals in 10 innings on Tuesday.
Fantasy Impact
After Tuesday's loss, Smith now has a 5.00 ERA and 1.33 WHIP with 11.3 K/9, three saves, and two blown saves through nine appearances. It has been a rough start to the year for the Cleveland closer but he has been a dominant reliever over the past few seasons, so fantasy managers should remain patient with him.
