View More NewsChris Sale Dominates Cubs in stellar outing
Chris Sale dazzled against the Chicago Cubs, tossing seven scoreless innings in a 7-0 victory for the Atlanta Braves on Tuesday.
Fantasy Impact
Sale allowed just two hits and no walks while striking out nine. This performance underscores Sale's dominance this season, evidenced by his improved 2.54 ERA and 0.89 WHIP. His ability to maintain a high strikeout rate (11.1 K/9) alongside a superb strikeout-to-walk ratio (7.63) continues to make him a top-tier fantasy option. Given his consistency and the underlying metrics like a 2.57 FIP and a sustainable .274 BABIP, fantasy managers should feel confident in Sale's ability to remain an elite starter in all formats.
