Fantasy Impact:
The news buys starters like J.A. Happ, Roenis Elias, and even prospect Taijuan Walker a few more starts to prove that they deserve to stay in the rotation. While it wasn't clear whose starting gig was in jeopardy, Walker owners had to be concerned that he could be sent down to Tacoma if he didn't turn things around soon. Walker looks to build off of a solid start last time out as he takes on Baltimore tonight.
