This performance was a masterclass in pitching, significantly bolstering his season statistics. With an ERA now improved from 3.46, and maintaining a stellar WHIP of 1.00, Flaherty's fantasy stock is undoubtedly on the rise. His high strikeout rate (12.0 K/9) continues to make him a valuable asset in fantasy leagues, particularly those that reward strikeouts heavily. Given his low BABIP of .320, there's an argument that some luck has played into his results, but his excellent FIP of 2.77 suggests his success is well-deserved. Fantasy managers should consider Flaherty a high-upside option moving forward, especially in matchups against strikeout-prone teams.
