Stephen Strasburg struggles in loss to Mets
by Rose Ingberman | Thu, Apr 9th 4:15pm EDT
Stephen Strasburg gave up six runs (three earned) in 5 1/3 innings, allowing nine hits, three walks and a hit batter, while striking out five for a Game Score of only 32. Four runs came after shortstop Ian Desmond muffed a doubleplay that would have ended the inning. The other two came in the sixth inning as Strasburg grew fatigued.
Fantasy Impact:
Strasburg had difficulty throwing his breaking and off-speed stuff for strikes. When he recovers the "feel" for those pitches, he will be as dominant as Matt Harvey was in this game.
