Craig Kimbrel delivered a flawless performance, securing his fourth save of the season as the Orioles topped the Twins 7-4.
Fantasy Impact
He threw 13 pitches over a clean inning, allowing no hits or walks while striking out two batters. This outing continues a stellar season for Kimbrel, who now boasts a 1.29 ERA and a 0.43 WHIP. His exceptional strikeout rate of 16.7 K/9 remains a huge asset for fantasy managers, especially in categories that reward strikeouts and saves. Despite a single blown save earlier in the season, his dominance in closing games should keep him as a top fantasy option among relievers.
