Raisel Iglesias allowed one earned run but secured the save in the Braves' 4-2 victory over the Athletics on Friday.

Fantasy Impact

Despite giving up a hit and failing to record a strikeout, Iglesias managed to notch his 14th save of the season. This performance, while effective in preserving the win, showcased a less dominant side of Iglesias, who has been relatively reliable this season with a solid 2.53 ERA and 1.03 WHIP. His lower strikeout rate of 6.8 K/9 continues to be a concern for fantasy managers relying on him for those crucial points. Moving forward, while Iglesias remains a viable closing option, his decreasing strikeout ability could limit his ceiling in leagues that heavily reward strikeouts.

Raisel Iglesias allowed a run but secured the save in the Braves' 4-2 victory over the Mets.

Fantasy Impact

Despite a less-than-dominant inning where he gave up a hit and a walk, Iglesias managed to notch his 10th save of the season. This performance, characterized by a lack of strikeouts and a shaky command, is a slight deviation from his otherwise solid season stats, including a commendable 2.35 ERA and a 1.04 WHIP. Fantasy managers should note that his reduced strikeout rate (5.9 K/9) this season might not be as detrimental if he continues to convert save opportunities, but it does limit his upside compared to other elite closers. Keep an eye on his ability to manage tight situations without his usual strikeout prowess.
