Jordan Montgomery with a quality start
by Chris Zolli | Diamondbacks Correspondent | Sun, Apr 23rd 5:00pm EDT
Jordan Montgomery pitched six innings against the Pirates on Sunday, allowing two runs on seven hits. Montgomery was saddled with the loss, but struck out five batters while walking two. He has a 3.78 ERA on the season and will face the Orioles on April 29 in New York.
Fantasy Impact:
In his three MLB starts, Montgomery has shown that he can register a good amount of strikeouts (16 in 16 2/3) and now has consecutive quality starts. He is not an immediate add, but he mixes all five of his pitches very well (at least 15% usage rate on each), keeping hitters off track. As Montgomery is a rookie, he has never faced the Orioles, but is 1-0 with a 4.22 ERA and 12 strikeouts in 10 2/3 innings at home.
