Cade Smith Earns Four-Out Win Tuesday
Cade Smith earned his fifth win of the season in Tuesday's 4-3 game against the Marlins. Smith came in to pitch the top of the eighth inning with the game tied, two outs, and a runner on first. He got the third out on a strikeout and stayed in to pitch the ninth inning with a one-run lead, posting a 1-2-3 inning with no strikeouts. The 26-year-old has split save opportunities and high-leverage situations with Hunter Gaddis while Emmanuel Clase is being investigated for sports betting. Smith has pitched well all season, collecting five wins, five saves, and 19 holds to go with a 2.68 ERA, a 1.10 WHIP, and a 12.41 K/9 rate in 53 2/3 innings of work. He should offer the most fantasy value out of the Guardians' bullpen down the stretch.
