Secures second win Chavez (2-2) picked up the win Tuesday, allowing one hit over three scoreless innings of relief in a 12-0 victory over the Nationals. He struck out three without walking a batter.
Impact The 41-year-old righty took the mound to begin the second inning after Reynaldo Lopez (shoulder) was removed from the game, and Chavez was credited with the win once the Atlanta offense got rolling in the third. He's been erratic in the second half, posting a 5.28 ERA, 1.50 WHIP and 14:5 K:BB through 15.1 innings since the beginning of August, and Chavez's low-leverage, low-relief role gives him minimal fantasy upside. Should Lopez miss any starts to close out the regular season, Chavez isn't likely to be a viable replacement, other than as part of a bullpen day.
