Shota Imanaga delivered a strong performance, tossing five scoreless innings, allowing seven hits and three walks while striking out eight in Monday's 2-0 loss to the Braves.
Fantasy Impact
Despite his commendable effort, the Cubs' offense couldn't capitalize, leaving Imanaga without a decision. This outing continues a stellar season for Imanaga, who boasts a minuscule 0.96 ERA and a 0.94 WHIP through eight starts. His high strikeout rate (9.8 K/9) and excellent control (6.38 K/BB ratio) make him a top-tier fantasy option. Given his consistent performance and ability to suppress runs, Imanaga remains a must-start in all fantasy formats, reinforcing his status as one of the elite pitchers this season.
