James McArthur notched a save in the Royals' 6-4 victory over the Brewers on Wednesday.
Fantasy Impact
He faced the minimum in his brief appearance, throwing just three pitches to secure the game. This performance, while not flashy, was crucial in a tight contest and helps stabilize his somewhat rocky season stats, which include a 4.15 ERA and a 1.38 WHIP. McArthur's ability to close games without allowing hits or walks in this outing is a positive sign, but his high BABIP (.380) and inconsistent strikeout numbers (9.3 K/9) suggest potential volatility. Fantasy managers should view him as a somewhat risky but necessary option for saves, keeping an eye on his outings for signs of improvement or further inconsistency.
